Skiing in
Cumbria???? That was the response I got when I answered my phone at the top of
Yad Moss on Saturday afternoon.
Yad Moss or 'Aspen-on
Toon' as a Geordie I was chatting to called it or '
Englands premier ski resort' as their website calls it is located in the north east of Cumbria about 30 miles east of
Penrith near Alston. Thanks to a lottery grant & the hard work of some dedicated
enthusiasts Yad Moss offers the opportunity to ski within a couple of hours of Manchester,
albeit for usually a
handful of days a year.
