Group: 11 for Large Outdoors. Conditions: dry, chilly, clear skies, sunny. Fellow leader: Rob.
Route: started in Nant Gwynant, up the Watkin (stopping to explain about the mining, hydro schemes and Gladstone rock), returned via south ridge. One client with arthritic knee meant pacing the group up. Screes at top required management, with one unsure and needing support and motivation. Excellent day with a keen group.
