MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Did the Snowdon horseshoe yesterday. Waste deep snow where it's drifted, visibility wasn't great which makes Crib Goch a bit easier ironically, but otherwise good conditions. Particularly like the 10inch long horizontal snow formations on this carn near the summit
I wussed out of Crib Goch in the summer*, **** knows what it must be like now! 😯
* It was piggin' windy up there.
Any more pics?
I did Crib Goch last summer. Amazing, it was can't wait to do it again.
Any other decent ridge walks around?
Crib Goch scared the crap out of me in June. I don't envy you being up there in this kind of weather. (Glad you enjoyed it though!)

Bit different from when we were up there in October!
crib goch PAH!
AJ - yes, If I hadn't been on my own I'd have been doing something a bit more interesting than Crib Goch. Just didn't fancy being "the numpty from London who called out mountain rescue", was sticking to a route I knew.
Love it on warm summer evenings when the rocks are warm and it's quieter, then on the summit as the light fails followed by torchlit descent of Pyg track back to PenYPass.
In zero vis when plastered in ice - eeek!. Well done.
