A brave Dad and sister offered to go on a mountain walk with me to practice leading a group.
The mountain of choice was Glyder Fach, including some scrambling near the summit.
We set off from Llyn Ogwen with the weather calm and with good visibility, this quickly changed to raining and low visibility.
We walked along a path until west of Tryfan and then went Off-Piste to the summit, scrambling over rocks and finding our route through thick fog.
Once at the summit a well deserved coffee and sandwich whilst the rain stopped, also a picture on the cantilever.
The walk down was full of giggles as we had a few minor stumbles, creating lots of funny stories to be shared.
Even Marcus Rashford came along (Dads his biggest fan).

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.
