My favourite was always Helvellyn and Striding edge I have some amazing photos of my time up there in the snow.No it does not. We were fully winterised with crampons and axes but as you say many are not. Winter kills at all levels and preparation is key. Sharp Edge was not the scariest part of get day for me, it was walking a compass bearing across the Blencathra plateau in zero visibility to arrive at the exit ridge. Just snow and snow.filled sky without a horizon.
It has snowed in Nantwich but is currently thawing.
Come on what are you calling central (just north of London? ) forecast for me (South Yorkshire) isn't to get above 2C today. Still snowing here had a good 4-6 inches so far.Temps climbing to about 10c by 12pm (central UK) so any snow won’t be around for long.
