Advanced Scrambling


I have been joined for two days by Rachel and Steve for an advanced scrambling course here in Snowdonia. Today we headed into Cwm Idwal and scrambled up North West Face Route (2) and then the Cneifion Arete (3). We had the odd shower this afternoon but not too bad compared to recent rain! Over the day we looked at the ropework involved on this type of ground, efficiency of movement and the judgement involved in selecting and using appropriate belays. Neither Rachel or Steve had been on this grade of ground before and we all had a fun day out!
