Winter kicks off…in Iceland

Filed under: Winter Climbing, Winter Conditions — davy @ 4:29 pm

Halli emailed me these photos and the following post:
“I went home last w/e, luckily the weather was very favorable and nice
conditions on a classic NE-ridge of Skessuhorn, Scottish III ca. 350m.
1:30 drive from Reykjavik. The conditions were very Scottish in all aspects, plastered snow on the rocks, some turf and loads of rock moves – no ice!”

A very wet November here in Edinburgh – although the MRF seems to show the weather cooling in the next few days, but more low pressures on the way – question is – will they bring snow?
