Helvellyn Conditions 25-02-12

Published February 25, 2012

Not much snow left on Helvellyn after a warm week and some rain.  Still some snow on the headwall area but not much left in the gullies or on the ridges.

The snow that was there was solid and worked well for the mountaineering course I was running today.

Looking about there didn’t seem to be much snow cover left at all on the other main Fells.
