Reading the stories of great but rare days out boarding, skiing and sledding on the Brecon slopes, amazing as it is such a similar story to the Comeragh and Knockmealdown mountains a couple of hundred miles west in South East Ireland where on occasion there has been some fun adventures meeting ski and boarders in the most unlikely places all united by our love of snow. I would love to see this excellent site cover the few slopes we have so that you guys in Wales can read of similar experiences of snow days on your sister ranges to your west.
