snow

Just got back from a cracking weekend up in the snow in Scotland so I thought I'd share a couple of photo's and a video from my trip: Camp below Ben Lawers by @OutdoorsMH, on Flickr Sunrise from camp, Ben Lawers by @OutdoorsMH, on Flickr http://youtu.be/rTLrMHjLymQ Not really a trip report...

My little tale begins in early March, I was feeling down, stressed and that my life was going nowhere. and after thinking about it, wrangled some time of work and decided to go for it, a trip to the Nordmarka. I was intending to visit Ivan and the gang for his and Andy's birthday bash, but the...

Managed to get up to the Lakes last week so thought I'd share a few photo's from my trip. Had a really good few days, took the Trailstar again and very happy I did as there were some strong winds which the Trailstar just took in it's stride! I'll be adding a write up and more...

Hi all, I've just returned from an excellent trip to Scotland. Early in the week I was in the Galloway forest, the Loch Trool area. One day, whilst out showsnoeing near to Curleywee I came across some tracks in the snow. There were no other signs of disturbance on the ground. The snow was deep...

Hi all, A couple of friends and myself are planning a hiking trip to the Vosges in France in the second week of February. This would be our first winter trip at moderate height (up to 1424m, Grand Ballon) and hopefully a good warm up to head for the Alps, Cairngorns or Scandinavia next...

Hi all, I've seen a few threads on these Swedish snow smocks that a few of you have dyed. I am thinking of trying to get hold of one for a little project of my own, dying maybe changing the buttons etc!!! Does anyone know where you can still get them from??? And also if you have modded...

Hey everybody, Last night we got our first snow here in Newcastle so this morning I decided to go for a walk and take some pictures. Just around the corner from me is the Ouseburn Valley which has a couple of small parks and wooded walkways. So thats where I headed. Not exactly into the...

Alright Guys, i know its very late to be talking about this because in Sunny GB its the summer. But i'm wanting to know if you guys have came across any good parkas/trousers suitable for winter wear preferably a winter snow pattern on it or just plain white. Ive saw the German Snow over suit...

I love tracking in the snow. It is a great place to learn the basics, see some more subtle sign and to build on some of the analytical skills that really help you put together a picture of events. A couple of days ago, I was wandering about in the wood behind our house. It had been great...

Hello, I'm off to Sweden in Feb on an Arctic survival course and need to get some boots. I am guessing it'll probably be between -20C and -40C there. I don't really want to spend more than £100, and ideally want boots that won't become redundant back here in the U.K. The ones that seem to...

Some snapshots taken out in a local wood in Cornwall today. Not many people about today, first time I have seen this kind of ice in Cornwall. Also guesses on what the tracks are although covered by fine snow. I know what they are as there are loads of them about here. Click the pics for...
