Maybe March 27 or 28 if you're (snow-) free? Plan is Sec 4b and 5 on Sat, Sec 1 (Cadair) and 1st part of 2 Sat night; t.b.c. on SundayQuote:

Whereabouts are you guys staying? and what time will you be setting off on Sat night??
http://www.guesthousessnowdonia.com/...bunkhouse.html
plan is to be back at the bunkhouse some time after 5pm, for start 7:30-8:00pm ish
I have PM'd molehill with my mobile number, if you want to give me a call.
If your doing Cader then I take it youll be starting from Talyllyn pass??
Sec4b/5 recce went according to plan, completed in 7 1/2 hours
Highlights for me were the sneaky forest cut-throughs - magical hidden paths that made you feel like you were in fairy tale - right down to the bog-monster that nearly ate me!
Rob was looking very strong/smooth, and I'd deffo get your money on a successful attempt
which, after experiencing the near-pathlessness of the route, I now understand will be a FANTASTIC achievement
conditions were looking good for the night-recce of the Caders - no doubt Rob will report in at some point...
Cader section by moonlight was magical. We were at least 30 mins adrift on Yiannis's times though :eek:. It was his first section and we'd done 7h earlier in the day, but we were going pretty well and I have absolutely no idea how he ran that fast in the dark (he was also in moonlight IIRC).Quote:
