replying to @RTWBarefoot I mean ... you can go hiking in the snow in the Peak District, but I mean ... apart from going sliding down the hill near my house, we're not a Winter Sport area ... #pttravel

A2 #PTTravel hard to have winter activities in this climate but if it's cold and bright the walking in Sussex is gorgeous 😎

A2 There are big Christmas displays within a day trip of here along with ski slopes north and west. Then there's always the inadvertent tobogganing on the beltways around Baltimore and Washington. #PTTravel

A2 #PTTravel We are about an hour from the Cascade Mountains. The Cascades have some of the tallest peaks in the US including Mt. Rainier, Mt Hood and Mt. Shasta. If you live here, you are typically an hour or two away from winter sports no matter where you live in the region.

replying to @StromfieldAdvs @StromfieldAdvs We don't get much snow here where I live, but the peaks are, like, 400m up and quite exposed, so they often close the roads on the passes over them because of snow and ice. #pttravel

@LadiesWTravel I'm not recommending it on the actual hill in question. It's a road with a narrow pavement!
You may be able to do it on the grassy hills nearby, of which there are legion, if they freeze enough.
