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.
Explored the scrambling potential on Senior's Ridge, then across to Glyder Fach and down the scree slope to Bwlch Tryfan. That scree wasn't as bad as I remembered. First post-qualification QMD, just for the fun of it, on a beautiful and mild autumn day.
