This should have been a walk up to Hart Fell, with Neil and Rog. Rog dropped out before we started and we aborted on Well Rig when the wind speed hit 30mph and the wind chill dropped to -19C. Deep snow in Hartfell Spa after Storm Arwen had dumped its load on us overnight. My ankles were so cold after the deep snow that I thought I may get frostbite in them! Gaiters needed next time I think!
