Description

Headed up a team of 5 MLs, leading a school group of 50 children up Snowdon. Pro-Active.
Torrential rain overnight and string winds meant the main Snowdon walk was cancelled in favour of a low level walk from YHA Nant Gwynant to Beddgelert. Significant flooding tho done of the path still required careful group management. But the best of a bad day was made
