Pamela and I headed to The Cobbler today and climbed Maclay’s Crack. This gave a good climb up a natural winter line on very well frozen turf and rimed rock.
There’d been some fresh snow and some wind movement of snow since Sunday and no significant consolidation of the snowpack. However, the approach to the crag was fine and deeper unconsolidated areas were generally avoidable. The turf at crag height is well frozen, there’s some icing, but burns are still running. Cloud cover all day with just the odd lifting of the cloud above the summits. Light South-easterly winds.
