Climbing Snowdon/Bestigning av Snowdon

Vi var i Wales i helgen med nagra kompisar for att klattra upp fro Snowdon, hogsta berget i Wales. Har ar jag efter vandringen upp till dar klattringen borjade.
We went to Wales this weekend with Chris, Rosser, Will and Martha to climb Snowdon. Here's me after the walk up to where the scrambling begins. Har har vi borjat att klattra.
The scrambling has begun.Jag igen, i full koncentration. Notera att vadret fortfarand ar ok, det skulle komma att bli betydligt varre.
Me again, fully concentrating where to put my feet and hands. Note that the weather is still ok, there was much worse to come.


Richard klamrar sig fast....

Rich holding on for dear life....The weather got gradually worse and the wind strenght was beyond belief!

Vadret blev samre och samre och det blaste enormt mycket.Visibiliteten borjar ga ner..... Lika bra det eftersom jag ar hojdradd.

The visibility starts to drop. Just as well really as I'm afraid of heights.

Skulle tro att man vid bra vader skulle haft en bra utsikt har.

I assume that when the weather is good you've got a pretty good view from this point.

Vi klarade det! Har ar Richard pa toppen! Fantastisk dag trots storm vindar.

We made it! Here's Rich on the top. Amazing day despite gale force winds.

Gosh - I can feel all those muscles working and the damp air .... Well done! Three Peaks next.

And the kitchen looks great - didn't recognise the cupboard doors and table!

Love
