#swirreledge buried under copious amounts of soft snow which was being redistributed on a gusty SW wind. Crampons & an ice axe currently essential on exposed and steep terrain like the #Helvellyn Edges #summitsafely #beadventuresmart Zac

A team sensibly retreating from the exposed & consequential #SwirrelEdge as no #iceaxe & #crampons Full winter clothing, equipment, skills & judgement currently required to safely enjoy the #lakedistrict fells. Microspikes incredible useful on even the easiest paths Zac

Well equipped winter walkers descending #swirreledge using crampons & ice axe, essential kit on exposed terrain in the current conditions. Microspikes also strongly recommended for even the easiest paths on the high fells #summitsafely #beadventuresmart Zac

Ghostly #brockenspectre dancing on #swirreledge 👻 This natural phenomenon occurs when the observers shadow from the sun is projected onto a cloud below. Usually seen with a rainbow 'glory' or halo when uniformly sized water droplets refract & backscatter the sunlight. Zac

Amazing heart stopping day! #StridingEdge #Helvellyn #SwirrelEdge Striding Edge was a little snowy but not too bad, getting up to Helvellyn was scary, hard ice. I sat on a little ledge on the edge of the earth to put crampons on, they came in handy for an icy Sirrel edge!
