I've had this to do for a while, but I'm only free the last weekend in August.
Keepit updated and I'll see what I can do.
August Bank Holiday in Snowdonia?? uuummmmmmmm....nah! I like my mountains peaceful!
BW, would be great to sort something together.
Chamber34, no wimps allowed. You'll do Crib Goch or else! S'not that bad, really! And if you can't navigate, we'll have to think of something else useful for you to do. No room for klingons! How are you at carrying large quantities of flapjack and fennel??

Hi Ian,
A small group from the staffs moorlands are going down the BH weekend to hopefully do a 8 to 8.30 round if you are after a few folk to join in with. If so drop us a line and I will put you in the email chain.
Cheers

I'm thinking of doing this myself later in the summer, just backpacked it over two days as a recce! Would offer to navigate as I know the route off by heart, but I'm not here for all of August.
Out of curiosity, what route are you planning on taking on the Snowdon section? Are you starting on the summit (and then doing Crib Goch the wrong way) or are you starting at Pen-Y-Pass. I'm starting at Pen-Y-Pass and I'm currently looking into what is the fastest way down into Nant Peris once I've been over Crib Goch and Snowdon - I tried descending directly from Clogwyn station the other day (there's a tiny little path leading down Cwm Glas Bach) but I've heard if you carry on past Llechog to just east of Halfway Station it might be a bit quicker?
