Not much snow here in sunny Embsay, however looking out on Pendle hill there seems to be a lot.
What are the trails like up at Gisburn please ?

This should probably be sticky, given the number of times people ask 🙂

No, I've not been recently.

Gisburn forest trails on Facebook says trails are rideable but the fireroads especially at the top near hope line are icey. Under the trees the trails should be fine.

I'd avoid hulley gulley, boardwalk sections. The roads around May have black ice on them due to rain and cold temperatures overnight.

Go a bit further up the dale. This is Threshfield Moor. Saw a few riders about.

It was fine, the fire roads are very icey in places one friend took a big fall but she was fine. Another hit the bridge at the bottom of face plant and roots with a tad too much speed, the ice there was slippy.
Hully Gully was interesting but rideable
