Event safety team member on Yr Wyddfa summit / Bwlch Glas finger post rotation. Worked 07.00 to 20.30 in very strong winds most of the day. Attended to several ultra runners who reached the summit nearing hypothermia, including one who had to be put on the train down to be met by an ambulance at Llanberis mountain railway station. Kept warm with 7 layers on core. GPX only reflects initial ascent to Bwlch Glas, not summit or rotation elevations.
