Went up Miner's track due to wind which kept us fairly sheltered until we met Pyg track. Gusts upto around 50mph. Once we reached the shoulder and summit, very high winds around 80mph driving rain for most of the llanberis path until we passed the halfway house, where light rain and wind continued.
