North Wales scrambling..

Mo, Sarah and myself were in North Wales yesterday scrambling on Tryfan. The weather was better than expected, with just a few showers near the end of the day.

The mountain was busy, with many keen teams on 'Grooved Arete', 'First Pinnacle Rib' and 'Gashed Crag'. We opted for 'North Buttress Variant', a grade 2 scramble which takes an unlikely line of weakness below Terrace Wall. This gave some interesting easy climbing (tricky scrambling!) in its lower section before topping out close to the summit blocks of 'Adam and Eve'.

Back in the Peak District, most moorland is open again following the recent high fire risk. The Peak Park were in the process of updating their website and removing local signage but some may remain. Details from the British Mountaineering Council.
