• Had three days up in Snowdinia last weekend. Great weekend of ridge walking and scrambling. Saturday we did the Snowdon Horseshoe in amazing weather. Couldn't park in the Pen-Y-Pass car park so had to change our route slightly and ascend up to the Crib Goch ridge from the road rather than follow the Pyg track. Meant we got a bit more ridge scrambling than we would have otherwise done and a much quieter route up. We didn't bother with queuing for the summit selfie on Snowdon and just carried on past to pick up the Watkin path and back into quietness as soon as we dropped off the top.
    Saturday was Cnict and Moelwyn Mawr and the abandoned slate mines in clear blue skies but mad wind - must have been 60mph in parts. Walking up Moelwyn Mawr was easy with the wind pushing you up.
    Sunday was Cadair Idris circuit, again with clear blue skies, wind still quite strong and pretty cold.
    All amazing views and scenery. Only downside was the litter, especially on Crib Goch and Snowdon. Picked up a few bits where I could but there was a lot of broken glass coming down off Snowdon :(
