Deduce what you like from the "chart": it looks like Fort William an Oban might get a bit of the white stuff.

Phew!
Safe for the time being.:cool:(y)
 
The Gazette website was filling out it’s empty space with a long story about this yesterday. Makes a change from “Here’s a thousand pictures from the Madison in the 70s do you recognise anyone?” I suppose
 
It can't be Christmas until the Express has run a "Coldest Winter for X Years" headline, or some variant on it.

Snow Bomb? We used to just call it Winter.
 
Great view Konrad - what route were you doing? I'm always looking for new routes to do
It was one my walking bud downloaded fro Walking World. Started at Hanging Shaw picnic area on the Middleton in Teesdale to Alston road. Headed up the moor - Church Bowers - Fendrith Hill - Swinehope Moor which is where the ski tows are. Most of the walk was on open access land so no real footpaths to follow but he'd downloaded the Walking World app which had a GPS route tracker for us to follow. We'd still be up there now without it o_O.

Same as you, we're always looking for new routes. We've done a good few this year from various sources: Walking World, Walking Britain, Visorando, Go4awalk, The Happy Hiker. Also from the old Northern Echo "North Country Walks" books. (quite funny looking at the adverts in these for long closed shops/restaurants/pubs etc)

What sort or distances are you looking at? We usually aim for 10 - 14 mile depending on terrain. I could try and dig some of our walks out for you.

These are the ones I've done in the last few weeks (except Blanchland, that's next Tuesday now) mostly downloaded from View Ranger or All Trails. There's a couple of gentle flat ones in there and I prefer something a bit more of a challenge. I'm based in Gateshead so most of those are Northumberland walks, Blanchland will be the first time we've gone west (apart from the Lakes) and we haven't gone south yet

prefer about 8-10 miles but happy to go beyond that too up to about 12, depending on terrain. At least for now, I'm building myself up gradually so that I can do 14-15 without my hips and knees giving up which they currently do on around the 11-12 mark! When we did Helvellyn that was only about 7.5 but felt like 27.5 with the scramble over and up Striding Edge

So, if you've got any good walks to recommend based on the above, brilliant - if you have gpx files for them so I can download onto my Garmin, even better (y) Cheers!

If you want any of these gpx's too, I can drop the file on here (I think?) I will say that my Red Kite Trtail went off piste by a fair bit as it's quite poorly waymarked in some places and the gpx route I was trying to follow was a bit off the mark so I did get lost a little bit! I take a map and use the apps on my phone as back up if it's somewhere new now

Thanks Artie. Probably a little further north than we go.
We're mostly Teesdale, Weardale, (North Pennines), Yorkshire Dales (Northern dales) as well as some coastal walks eg. Durham Denes and coastal path which are all probably too far south for you.

Something you may or may not know.. many of the Express weather reports are from the Piers Corbyn's pseudo-science long-range weather forecast service - www.weatheraction.com.

The forecasts are paid for and based on theories about solar flares.

** Comment from Piers Corbyn:-

"#Covid19-Alarm has replaced #ClimateChange-Alarm as the main propaganda tool of the megaRich and Mega Corporations for their declared NewNormal / NewWorldOrder world plunder and control scheming to end democracy and destroy Rights.

"These are strange times indeed when a LongRange Weather forecasting company actively discusses such political things; but make no mistake the totalitarian nature of this NewNormal / NewWorldOrder project is THE end of Science and THE end of democracy. Both ClimateChange propaganda and CV19 contagion propaganda rely on falsification of data and negation of evidence-based science. THAT REQUIRES the negation of democracy because it is through democratic debate based on evidence of the real world that science of the real world is advanced. Most academic institutions and official science and technology bodies are now prisoners of the propaganda machine and as in Nazi Germany - where 'contagion' was the key to coercion - and the Stalinist USSR, the "science" they propagate is for the political spectacle not the understanding of the living and physical universe."
