Walks/scrambles this weekend?

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

Been stuck in Cambridge since August, and this weekend (20/3) is free.
Unfortunately the forecast looks a bit crap! Any suggestions for
wet weather scrambles or decent walks? Alternatively is there any
snow up in Wales/the Lakes at present? Haven't used my Mantas
since last year :(. Just the two of us (so had better not be too far
off the beaten track, just in case), fit, experienced (did Alta Via 2
last summer), but no crampons, so Striding Edge in the snow not
an option. Yet :)

TIA,

Ben

I've "been stuck" in Cambridge since 1984 myself! But I
still manage to get to the Lakes for a weekend's wild
camping about one week in three (in good weather).
Don't know about current conditions, but there was no
serious snow on Esk Pike on 5th/6th March; just
centimetre deep slush. I suspect it's all gone by now.
The Wasdale Website (www.wasdaleweb.co.uk) has Webcams
and a good weather page.

Happy walking! Mark
