TheFrontPoint

TheFrontPoint is a non commercial website providing links and information about winter climbing in the UK.

The Winter Climbing Reports provide links to all the major sources of UK winter climbing and conditions reports available. We also provide reports and photos of our own winter climbing adventures and other contributed reports from this and previous seasons here.

We would like to hear from anyone who would like to contribute winter climbing reports to TheFrontPoint. If you have been out climbing and would like to post a report to this site then please send your report and photos here

The Weather Forecast page provides weather forecast images and useful links to help you make a judgement on the weather before heading out. As usual Weather Geek will also be providing his own forecast twice a week here on the home page.

Also on this site you will find links to all the main Web Cams, Forums, and some useful winter climbing articles

New for this season we have introduced the Publications page listing useful winter climbing guide books and publications.

We hope you find this a useful resource when planning your next winter climbing trip.

Getting Cold again

Cold everywhere, snow the further North you are, a taste of the big freeze from a month or so ago.

The Weather Forecast page has more detail

Outlook:
Today (Saturday 6th) the eastern seaboard areas of the USA are experiencing a very intense snow storm.
There is a chance that parts of this weather system may filter across the Atlantic this coming week.
Therefore, a possibility of some severe weather for the UK for the weekend of 13th , 14th.
Just a bit early to tell for sure, but we’ll keep an eye on the situation.

The Met Office winter forecast can be read here

There is a very indepth prediction here from NetWeather. It goes into some detail, well worth the read if that sort of thing shakes your tree.
