Did the Pyg Track at 12 years old with a halfwitted scout master who managed to lead us all up Crib Goch - then the weather came in - remarkable how crisp and clear the memories are - terror has a way of sharpening the mind.

Stunning Dan, thanks. My wife and I did this years back, we were on our hands and knees at one point and a more experienced couple walked straight past us. I'd done a lot of Alpine style climbing prior to that at the old grades of 'dif' and 'v-dif' so I thought it wouldn't be a problem. It might be technically easier but there's no rope to catch you if you stumble. It's serious stuff , not to be messed with.

Went over this in 1991 as a young 17 year old army recruit whilst on Adventure Training. The weather was absolutely howling and i was terrified lol. Loved it though

In the fact file maybe it should add knowledgeable use of Map and compass as apposed to just owning them. Just a thought.
@davidsmith63552 жыл бұрын
its a very dangerous place there but I'm not sure how map and compass would reduce the risk of falling

Someone has just died today on this walking their dog. I’m not sure why you would walk yourself and your dog into danger. The dog is ok but for the poor lady RIP.,

Nope, not even with a gun to my head. I'd rather take the head shot than die a thousand times on that ridge. I felt sick watching it :-( 1:40 onwards is ridiculous. This is a low grade 'scramble' ???

We walked part of that route on way down after reaching the summit...we turned back though as my wife felt very uneasy about carrying on walking on a ridge . If you fall or slip then thats it ..so i agree with your comment.

It’s graded as a 1 because it’s not technically difficult. The exposure level though is as high or higher than many scrambles at higher grades.

Warning: the music to this is shite and painfully loud, it’s intermittent and considerably louder than the commentary whereby if you reduce the volume to make the music bearable you can’t hear what’s being said! This is such a basic technical mistake and easily resolved but the music adds nothing to the experience other than irritation so I’d suggest deleting it entirely. .
