Straight forwards scrambling, ran up in most weathers and never been concerned. if you stay right you avoid all drops. out left you can make it a tad hairier..one of the easiest grade 1's. Personally I think the descent off Lliwedd in the Peris has more objective danger.
Going to have a bit of a recce of the new bits tomorrow if the weather is good.
I`ve been up the gribyn before but i dont think i`ve come down Carnedd Dafydd that way before,should be straigtforward with good visability but come off too early and you might get into a bit of bother above Cwm Lloer.
I'll have to get a few recce's of this one in as i've never done it before, if anyone's available sometime!! but a packed calender between now and the race does'nt leave much options unless i can get some days off work.
Is some of the route flagged or marked?
There are flagged sections around Ogwen - see website.Originally Posted by gafrymynydd
The stretch between Aber Falls and Carnedd Llewelyn can be very difficult in poor visibility, it needs a good recce. Glyder Fawr to Pen-y-pass also needs a recce unless you know the best lines from the Peris Horseshoe.
