Tryfan from Gwern Gof Uchaf farm
Llyn Ogwen with Y Garn and Foel-goch behind
In the middle you can just see The Canon on Tryfan
The start of the track. Glyder Fach in the back
Looking across to Tryfan as we follow the track .
Geordie had everything hanging off his rucksack as his hydration bladder had leaked over it all
Y Garn
Llyn Idwal and Glyder Fawr
Devil's Kitchen and falls
Geordie negotiating a rushing ford
Carneddau range in the distance
Steps up Devil's Kitchen
Looking back down from Devil's Kitchen
Scree slope leading to the summit of Glyder Fawr
Looking across the steep scree slope. Y Garn in the back and Llyn y Cwn below
Approaching the summit
Trying to figure out as this point which one was the summit
Snowdon and Crib Goch in the distance
Geordie at the summit of Glyder Fawr
Looking forward. To the left poking up is Tryfan and Glyder Fach back right
Like another planet
Boulder fields ahead
Back left is the summit of Glyder Fach and a fun obstruction
A straightforward scramble over this chimney of sharp rocks
Geordie the routeseeker or should i say peakseeker. He's like an excitable dog, only hairier. Go on Boy!
Admiring the view down to Llyn Cwmffynnon
another field of boulders
Resting at summit of Glyder Fach. Probably the most puzzling summit point i've had to negotiate
Showing off on the Cantilever is essentail
The idea was to have us both in the shot. I didn't quite make it in time
My rear polished some rock on this very steep scree slope
Tryfan
following the path along Cwm Tryfan
Looking up Little Gully which leads on to North Gully on Tryfan. I was a bit uncomfortable there back in March
Looking across to the Carneddau range
