Mountain high adventures

12/04/2026

Lovely day spent on Yr Wyddfa for playing dodge the weather. We done the route in reverse which ment we missed the gnarly weather at the summit it was almost tropical 😂. And ment we could have a leisurely walk down the ranger path back to Llanberis. Super nice group too, never feels like work on days like this.

Discription

The building blocks of how to navigate safely and efficiently in the mountains. Ok i know we have phones and GPS devices but all know technology can fail us whether the Battry dies or it gets damaged.
Have you been out in winter and tried using technology in sub zero temps? never mind the battry dying faster but also taking gloves off at those temps isn't ideal. This is where a map and compass into its own. No battry needed, gloves can stay on and with a map case its robust.

If your intrested in learning how to navigate using a map and compass are running a intro to Navigation course on the 22nd of March. Message me for more information.

Last weekends Jolly in the hills of Eryri gang. It was great to be in what i consider my second home. The mountains feel like part of me and Wales in my blood (i get that from my grandma).

Day 1 was a walk up Moel Eilio , Foel Gron, Foel goch, Moel Cynghorion then followed the ranger path up towards Yr Wyddfa before turning back down the llanberis path

Day 2 was nice but boggy day up Moel Siabod heading up the Daear Ddu ridge and back down the path to forest at Capel Curig

Fun fact Capel Curig is the wettest place in UK

Lovely walk up catbells with the ferrets.

Time away from distractions, in nature, with my 2 favourite people. It doesnt get much better.

Catbells is must do for any little hikers. Best saved for a dry day as there's some short scrambling sectionS that can slippy. Definitely in my top 5 hill walk for little legs.

A few others are -
Wansfell pike
Loughrigg fell
Moel famau

A lovely walk from chapel stile to my mums tree at loughrigg tarn. Loughrigg holds a special place in my heart. Its because of my mum bringing me areas like this as a child that I love the outdoors and I do the job I do now.

lili'r Wyddfa / The snowdon lily
A beautiful little flower that is wide spread in the alps how ever a very rare find in Eryri.

It's latin name Lloydia serotina named so after Edward Lhuyd . When Lhuyd died in 1709 having spent much of his life researching and documenting much of the natural history, Geology and botany of Great Britain. He left his work to the jesus college Oxford. How ever because of his honesty in the findings of fossils on top of Yr Wyddfa/ Snowdon. His work was auction off and lost in fires and to time its self. But his name will for ever be linked to that of the mountain and flower in honour of his lifes labours.

P.s ive yet to find one myself. I do keep a careful eye out when climbing the cliffs of Eryri
