I think I was at Nant Peris when those two climbers were brought down safely. If it wasn't them, then it was another two people. I have the ultimate respect for what you Coastguard Air Assistance rescuers do for us. Thank- you.
ОтветитьWhy did the helicopter come all the way from St Athan (Cardiff) instead of RAF Valley on Anglesey?
ОтветитьCrag fast. The bane of the unprepared and inexperienced.
ОтветитьI don’t understand why non experienced climbers try this route!
ОтветитьThey froze and just couldn't move anymore, panic attack and you're done.
ОтветитьI spent weeks preparing before I attempted Crib Goch. I watched videos and planned my route meticulously. My son and I were happy to turn around at any point should we have felt out of our depth.
I wasn’t concerned about the knife edge just the initial scramble and the pinnacles.
On walking out on the knife edge I became very uneasy, conditions were perfect with no wind and just a few wisps of cloud, however I felt shit-scared. I don’t really think anything can prepare you for how exposed you can feel up there. I made it across like a crab and was happy when we made the pinnacles.
What surprised me was the scrambling after crib goch up to crib y Ddysgl, quite difficult in places.
A place not to be underestimated for sure.
