Bristly Ridge in mist

Bristly Ridge, Glyder Fach & Y Gribin, Snowdonia – November | ブリッスリー・リッジ、グルダー・ファッハ、とイ・グリビン

8am start. To save time, as the days were short, we walked up the valley of Cwm Tryfan to get to the start of Bristly Ridge. Scrambling up (it went on for longer than I remembered), we got to Glyder Fach at the top, which was almost deserted, with no-one posing for photographs on the Cantilever stone, which is what you often find. We temporarily lost each other at Castell y Gwynt, when B decided to go over the top and I walked around as the rocks were wet and slippy. Meeting up again, we scrambled down the ridge line of Y Gribin. Misty and windy.
