    There is some amazing backcountry skiing here when big dumps occur, Carneddau is where it's at.

    Since when was Snowdonia a ski resort? There is a dry ski slope, about 50 feet long. It's a place for walkers, climbers, parasailers etc. I'd expect anyone skiing will quickly fall off a cliff onto jagged rocks! There is skiing in Scotland I believe. Go there for skiing.

    I ride a split board. Been touring in BC Canada. Back in the UK now. Is it worth skinning up ?

    Hi,
    You can get some sick rides down the lower north east ridge on the right day but only for the very advanced or hell men. Been very rare these days due to, dare I say, global warming.
