Recommended Posts

Why would it be closed and what is wrong with using the appropriate channels to find out ?

My experience is that the 'official channels' are normally wrong.

Exactly. I wanted to find out from people who'd maybe travelled them today.

 

And why would they not be? What a stupid comment given the imminent snow forecasts. It was snowing in Castleton earlier so there you go.

I agree- the Sunday after Christmas there was nothing saying that Snake Pass was closed but it was when we got there. Luckily Woodhead was open.

We travelled over the Snake on that day as well. ignored the closed sign and it was fine. Very strange.

Make a note of the posters who were smart alec's.

If you want to know ask someone with up to date first hand knowledge.

Sheffield Forum is the perfect place for that if you can put up with the twonks.

I'll be making the same inquiry tomorrow at about 11pm.

Helpful answers only please

Roads are very rarely closed based on a forecast

I'll endeavor to let you know. I'll be going that way not long before that.
