well that was a rather pleasant sunny day in the hills.:thumbup:

Did anyone else take the direct route up the gulley from Lyn Bochlwyd to the 'bowling green' on Y Gribin? I was surprised not to see anyone else up there ahead of me and when I 'popped out' at the top the marshals were surprised to see me come from that direction and they said they'd not seen anyone else take that route! it seemed an obvious straight route to me, though steepish towards the top. As the results aren't up yet I'm not sure how much time I saved/wasted as I need to check the times of the few people who were around me at Ogwen!

just a shame the day ends with a jostle through the crowds of day trippers going up Snowdon (at least they don't get the train though).
