10 Grade 1 Scrambles In Snowdonia

[@hallstewart]

Crossing CG in cloud is otherworldly. It’s unsafe in stormy conditions. A good day out is lock you bike up at Penypass, cross CG and CYD to Bwlch Coch, descend Miners to the south of the path past the mines to Glaslyn, climb Y Gribin, traverse YLewedd and descend to lower Miners and back to Penypass. It maximises terrain and minimises crowds.

Yet to see crib goch in cloud and snow. Completely agree, stormy conditions it should be avoided. Personally I don't cross anything above 30mph. Thanks for watching

Really useful video , thank you, I'm doing Seniors and Moel Siabod this weekend if it's not too wet. I'm fairly certain I will never do Crib Goch, I can't even watch it on video.

[@clogsonthemountain]

@pcb1962 moel siabod can be done in wet, make sure you scale high around the 2nd lake to avoid the bog, enjoy 👍

Awesome video 👏 I did Tryfan via north ridge yesterday and already done Crib Goch, loved them both. Planning my next scramble so this video is very helpful 👍

@@swin1306 great stuff glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@swin1306]

@@clogsonthemountain yes I did, have you done Jack's Rake in the Lake District by any chance? Been looking at that one it looks good

[@clogsonthemountain]

@swin1306 had an attempt two years ago but unfortunately it was too wet and someone lost their life two weeks before in similar conditions so I decided to back down at the tarn. It is on my list to do though 👍

[@swin1306]

@@clogsonthemountain Ah right ok, hopefully we both get to complete it soon then 👍 It's rubbish when you can't do what you set out for, but safety has to come 1st. I was supposed to be carrying on from Tryfan up to Glyder Fach and Glyder Fawr but it got so windy and wasn't safe at all so I had to cut my route short unfortunately 😕

[@clogsonthemountain]

@swin1306 safety always comes first, it will be there for another day 👍

[@thebaldscrambler]

Nice! Tryfan North Ridge and Bristly Ridge would be my favs on that list and they're next to each other ;-). Even more fun done in reverse!

[@clogsonthemountain]

Bristly definitely my favourite mate

[@FlintBeastgood]

Just what I was looking for. Thanks.

[@TG-pd3ft]

If you do decide on Dexter gully I suggest a helmet if there are people above you as there have been some bad accidents there due to rocks dislodged by higher parties

[@clogsonthemountain]

Helmet is packed already as we're doing grade 2 and a few 3s. Great shout though mate 👍👊

[@OutandaboutwithSpencer]

Nice, I’ll have to try some of them. 😂👍

[@clogsonthemountain]

Think you've done them all mate 😂
