We had a walk up Hardknott today.
A week after the snow and the pass is still well and truly closed. There are a few drifts on the first section up to the fort which will probably only last a couple more days. However the last section has significant drifting with the road pretty much lost in the snow. Unless it rains I can't see the pass being open for another couple of weeks.

| Right I've eaten all of the grass and the braken and I'm sick of eating snow! |

Harter Fell, pretty alpine even at low level.

A week after the event...like you said, the Lakeland Loop is certainly in doubt now.
