Maybe I’m being too harsh, or I’m just used to being with very competent people on the hills - usually fell runners or climbers. But that guy is a guide of some sort. Pretty ridiculous that he’d potentially be in charge of paying customers. Obviously what he does with clients will be very different to what he’s doing in the video, but still.

Sobering video. I thought they did OK. The guy videoing was more confident on the steep ground so I thought it was fair enough to get more help. Big errors 1) trying to do Crib Goch in those conditions (with a deteriorating forecast), but a bigger error in my opinion was trying to escape to the Pyg Track half way along. The guy videoing and his partner seemed OK, the guy who got injured and his partner almost seemed to be persuaded to use that route and my impression was they were less experienced and hence it ended badly.
