Snowdonia

Wednesday/Thursday 5/6 September.

Yes I know... these photos are from last week and so the blog chronology is wrong...

Last week was the 2nd week after Joc's 5th session of chemo and she was feeling quite perky so we zoomed up to Snowdonia as the forecast was reasonable. We stayed on one of the campsites near Ogwen quite close to Tryfan.
Great sunset and clear night.  Tryfan ridge on bottom left here.


The scrambling on Tryfan is great.
Few scrambles in the UK start near the road and just keep on going to the summit. Magic!

The 'canon' is one major landmark on the way up.

That night we had barbecued chicken... but not this one, who took a sinister interest in the cooking.

Next day we headed up Crib Goch for the 100th time (maybe a slight exaggeration). Up the Pyg, down the Miners. Weather in valley good, not so good on the summit. Pic here is view of the Cromlech from the Pyg. Looks a party is just starting on Sabre Cut.
