I chose 2 scrambles and a route I`d never done before.
Ascended up Gribbin Ridge to summit. There was a mountain race on so my walking partner (Jeff Handley) throught it`d be a good idea to keep up with them. Topped out of the scramble and over the top of Glyders. Beautiful route up and avoids the horrible screes at top of Devils Kitchen.
Descended down Bristley ridge which was my first time on the ridge itself. Some people coming up but easy to pass although some exposure.
Climbed onto Tryfan where it was rammed with people, dogs, babies etc.
Descended climbers route direct down to Ogwen Cottage.

Glyderau
The Glyderau (a Welsh plural form, also known in English as the Glyders) are a mountain group in Snowdonia, North Wales. The name derives from the highest peaks in the range, Glyder Fawr and Glyder Fach. According to Sir Ifor Williams, the word "Glyder" derives from the Welsh word "Cludair", meaning a heap of stones.
