Description

Traverse of Y Llwedd as part of a clockwise ascent of Snowdon. Picking fun scrambling up and down. Terrible rain and strong winds kept us away from the very edge.

Area : Snowdon Massif

Snowdon (Welsh: Yr Wyddfa, pronounced [?? 'w?ðva]) is the highest mountain in Wales, at an altitude of 1,085 metres (3,560 ft) above sea level, and the highest point in the British Isles outside Scotland. It is located in Snowdonia National Park (Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri) in Gwynedd, and has been described as "probably the busiest mountain in Britain".[3] It is designated as a national nature reserve for its rare flora and fauna.
