There was snow in parts last week though majority was just wet. A lot more snow has fallen this week so I'd imagine it's rather white 🙂

New Garw valley trails are unrideable at the moment so Afan the same, I'm in the next valley over, we've just had fresh snow. Got around 6-8 inches in fields etc.

Gower got a good 6inches of snow today as well.

Tried to ride the wall today, its pretty bunged up with snow at the moment... Its a good 6" deep up the top. Most of it is rideable but its a struggle. We didnt go over to Whytes but usually the snow and ice would be even worse over there.

Just got back from riding The Wall, top half is still quite snowy although it is thawing. All ridable other than the top bit of the Wall climb, Nantybar and Picadilly.

I did go up today but it was dead when i got there, only 2 cars on the car park (which was an ice rink). All the lads had already bailed so i thought it best not ride on my own, just in case ....my final day in Wales tomorrow and did think about venturing up up there tomorrow but after the above comments and dont think i'll bother making he 1hr drive. Cheers all for the updates 😆

Where was that shanta? Glyncorrwg? We parked at Rhyslyn in Pontrhydyfen at the bottom of the valley, it was fine there and The Wall is nearly all rideable. Will be even better tomorrow as it was warmer today.

What are the trails like at the moment? I doubt there is still snow there but thought I had better check before I do a road trip. Cheers.
