This is my favourite route up Snowdon being a good all rounder. Theres a bit of everything for everyone, come rain or shine, and you can make your route as interesting as you like. And to top it all there's rarely many people on it.
Great little route and agree with mountain man, very few people go in this area of Snowdonia. Bit of snow and Ice on the ledges and cracks. Couple of pitches on the whole route
This was an awesome winter mixed route and highly recommended. It's about 3 pitches however we had to do it in 4 because of rope drag. The first was a memorable one as I got stuck trying to fit through a gap that wasn't big enough for me and my rucksack and ended up having to remove my pack to get through. The winter route's graded II/III with the route we took being a solid III with one pitch more like a IV. Didn't use my axes much. Good protection all the way though. Started late and didn't arrive back at the hut until 10.30pm. Bit of an epic but worth it!
