@ subscribed! if you are ever planning a group hike I would be mega keen. Just started solo hiking myself. I’ve done Watkins path up snowdon, scaffel pike, and the pen y fan horseshoe route so far but my mates aren’t really into it and would love to meet some people who go out frequently. I’m 22 and super interested in doing some more scrambling and more technical climbs but don’t want to put myself out of my depth on my own, especially in the winter months. Cheers for your time
