Three Peaks Day 1 - started 16.30, down by 20.45 and then - even despite a wrong turn back towards FW - a long wait for the stragglers! Dry but quite an unseasonally dank and cool day; everyone amazed to still see some snow on the upper slopes... Lovely initial climbs before a bit of a long zigzag slog over the scree; disappointing to be in the upper slopes in cloud and lose all views.
