Snow in the South

Although we'd enjoyed a snowy walk up Skiddaw last weekend, we didn't expect to be walking in icy conditions on our visit to Coombe Hill in Buckinghamshire, yesterday. We were trialling the route directions for a circular walk that Richard has devised for inclusion in a walking book celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Chiltern Society later this year. We set off from Little Hampden and before long were above the snow line! By the time we reached the high point at Coombe Hill Monument, the mist was down and conditions underfoot were treacherous. Luckily, they improved along the  Ridgeway!
