Description

Dash up Snowdon, me and James. Leaving Pen y Pass at 12:45pm, returning at 5:45pm...5 hours :) Beautiful day. Snow/ice -put crampons on on Miners track after about 100m of the "scrambly" section. Followed by couple wearing trainers and UGGs and carrying only a handbag.. Lots of people bum sliding all over area of `miners track` as track obviously covered. Stunning view from summit for miles. Probably the best view I have ever had from the summit. Decent down Pyg. Crampons off where Pyg/crosses Crib Coch track. Picked up lost walkers from London on this junction who thought route UP Crib Goch was way down! Lovely day on the hill! James`s first day wearing crampons!!!!!!
