Thank you very much - praise indeed from a photographer of your ability - hard to credit it in Wales but I had three consecutive days of that weather in mid-November! If I have any more pics from the other days I'll put them up.
I can remember it mostly from a running conversation I had with another walker climbing Crib Goch about old climbers we both knew from our youth which came to an abrupt end when we reached the ridge and he had to hang back to persuade his daughter that she really could get across itHe did succeed, eventually.

I've often wondered about Crib Goch, is it possible for a cowardto make it to the summit, bag the 3000ft peak and retreat with there tails between there legs without encountering anything too scary?
Walking can be dangerous and is done entirely at your own risk. Information is provided free of charge; it is each walker's responsibility to check it and navigate using a map and compass.
