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.
Warning
Please note that hillwalking when there is snow lying requires an ice-axe, crampons and the knowledge, experience and skill to use them correctly. Summer routes may not be viable or appropriate in winter. See winter information on our skills and safety pages for more information.
