ZachStoneFirst Multi-Pitch  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Feb 3, 2007

With a borrowed rack of 12 carabiners, 10 slings, 6 stoppers and a hex. Good times, and a far cry from my RRG sport climbing up bringing

Date Climbed: Jul 28, 2007

As with Glyder's I have done this stunning summit many times combining them all in days trek. There is always something that wants to draw you back to this summit...?
Jul 28-2007 was a great start to the day when on Tryfan but the weather turned sour when we reached Glyder Fawr to head on to Y Garn... Not nice.

Date Climbed: Aug 5, 2007

We had climbed Snowden the day before in wind and rain, but luckily had perfect weather for Tryfan. Lovely climb, great views, maybe next time I'll try the Adam to Eve jump.

Been up here so many times in all seasons and all weather conditions. It never fails to entertain, which ever route you pick. One of my favourite mountains.

Always makes a trip to North Wales worthwhile. Done numerous routes in pretty appauling weather, not in snow yet though!

Date Climbed: May 23, 2008

Went up Tryfan on the way to Cardiff for the European Rugby Final. Nice work-out meant we could justify the two days of drinking that followed. A very enjoyable hill with a multitude of scrambling/climbing options. If only there was something like this in Wicklow!!

I've scrambled about on Tryfan quite a few times now. I'm looking forward to doing some climbing on it next time I go back.

DrJonnieOld Friend  Sucess!

Scrambling and rock climbing up many routes over the years and in all seasons, my most unusual sight was seeing a billy goat looking down at me as I was climbing the top gulley on the North Ridge.
Sometimes there are crowds at the summit having lunch, other times its deserted. I never tire of Tryfan its Beautiful.

norm79Welsh Mountain Day  Sucess!

Climbed Tryfan - lost the main route up the North Ridge and picked it up near the top after scrambling up a scree filled gully. Then onto Glyder Fach and descending via Y Gribin.

Nice weather. Didn't do the Adam<=>Eve jump :P Well, it was quite windy!

mountainmanmarkOne of the musts in Wales  Sucess!

Climbed this one a number of times, and yes jumped between Adam and Eve. A variation on the theme that a mate of mine did was a press up between the two, although getting down afterwards proved tricky!

Ejnar FjerdingstadFrom Ogwen and via South Ridge  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Sep 29, 1976

With our two children of 8 and ten. We turned right at the foot of the ridge instead of left and had to climb a series of rather steep, large slabs, a bit tricky with the kids without a rope, but it went very well. The weather wasn't too good, but with some views. My wife forbid me trying the jump from Adam to Eve!

vancouver islanderNearly 50 years....  Sucess!

...since I first climbed Tryfan. I've lost count of the number of times I've done it by all routes, in all seasons and all weathers. Last time was summer 2004 and this was the first time I didn't do the Adam/Eve jump. Are the years finally catching up on me?

On the same trip we had a grandstand view of a helicopter evac from just below the "cannon barrel". The aircraft hovered above us and the injured party was winched up from below, right by our perch. My camera battery had died half an hour earlier. Doh....

igneouscarlRainy Day  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Oct 21, 2006

Been to Tryfan a coupleof times over the last few years. The first was a weekend of climbing on Tryfan Fach and this weekend I'd returned to try leading the Grooved Arete. Unfortunately the weather wasn't suited so went up the north ridge- enjoying a good scramble and beautiful lighting (between the rain).

Since climbed First Pinnacle Rib (Vdiff), and Belle vue Bastion (VS 4C).
