Today was always going to be a mountain
day but we definitely didn't have any choice. I think it stopped
raining for about 5 minutes today! Nonetheless, it was a brilliant
day. We parked up at Pen y Pass and traversed into Llanberis Pass,
navigated our was over the top of Dinas Mot and up to the base of The
Parson's Nose (D) on Clogwyn y Ddysgl. This great scramble was
brilliant in the wet, greasy in places and made the tricky
bits....well....even trickier! Some power screams echoed around the
cwm now and again! We continued up the Arete to join the main ridge
which led up onto the summit of Snowdon. This was the first time I
have been on this summit and never saw another person...pretty
unsurprisingly to be honest! Despite being soaked to the skin and
with a 3 hour drive ahead we opted for a little more than walking
down the Miners track. We headed SE and then NE down a nice wee
scramble at about grade 1 which led u eventually to the Miners track
for a brisk walk back to the car. A 7 hour round trip, a quick
change then a drive over to the Peak district for 3 days rock
climbing!
