Anyone know how Mytholm Edge (not for weasels etc) fares in the snow?

I don't know for certain but both NFW and Tony's Wall holds should be completely fine, you just won't be able to top either of them out. They're both very steep and the former has capping rock which should keep the snow off.

The road to get up to them though is another issue entirely...

Anyone know what Bridestones will be like today? And roads around that area?

Roads will be bad reckon. That valley always gets hit. Plus a lot of stuff is freestanding and flat on top so any melt with the sun will run off on to climb faces.

Took a gamble. Roads all good. Don't think there has been any new snow in Lancs/West Yorkshire for a few days. Had an ace day. We weren't actually at Bridies, but somewhere esoteric in that area.

Probably not, that's hardly esoteric.
