Excellent! The Peak District's own icefall, Kinder Downfall was in a similar condition last week, the first time I've seen it like that, despite years of snow hunting. I stick by my maxim though:'Rock is for climbing, snow is for skiing, ice is for your gin and tonic." It's served me well over the year, I like to belay to something that doesn't tinkle when you hit it.
Never did understand why they didn't make skis in WH
