Snow Watch 2013

Oh sorry... I read the rest of the comments/ history and I see it must be what is left over from the end of last week! Must have been a lot of snow. I hope its still there this weekend.

That Snow Report SA FB page has been really cool - also nice to see some friendly faces on the Drak Gardens fb page

I had the fun task of driving to Estcourt this morning. Somehow I didn't crash into anything with perfectly clear views! The escarpment at Mnweni is covered in snow, the south slope of Cleft Peak is packed, from Giant's south it looked like the snow was from about 2700m up. I drove back after dark, so I don't know how its looking this evening.

I need urgent advice please! haha
Doing the Bell Traverse leg on saturday and i see there is light snow falls predicted during the day....advisable in terms of visibility, etc, or should we rework our route? or front not likely to properly hit the berg?

An update on the snow situation as seen from the N3 - there is still snow on the Mafadi Ridge and Champagne Castle, but the rest seems to be gone. The remaining snow looks fairly thick, its probably ice. Surprised its lasted this long.

Sounds like Sani Pass didn't get snow yesterday, but from what I have read the cold weather has set-in. Intrepid is out near that area this weekend and he said the weather was pleasant for the first few days. The last time he was in signal range was yesterday (Sat) morning, and the message said "weather is changing", so I have a feeling they had a pretty cold night. Anyone know if other parts of the Berg had snow? Brrr.
