North Ridge of Tryfan

I’ve been out with the Galvin family today, reminiscing about the adventures we regularly had together when the boys were small. It was a special birthday this year for Kate and she was keen to get back up Tryfan after a few years away. We cruised the North Ridge and got blasted by the strong Southerly winds on the summit. West Gully gave some shelter in descent and Mum and Dad gave the boys (and Sophie) a run for their money in zipping down for ice cream 😀 Ace - thanks very much all.

Teaching winter mountaineering

Teaching winter mountaineering today with Fabio and Mark. It’s been a bit more blustery than of late so we stayed lower and got them on the sharp end in ascent and descent. Bit of a turbo thaw coming in tomorrow but a great start to winter. Fancy joining us for more of this? Check out Expeditionguide.com for our full winter programme.
