Love the wilderness feel of the Rhinogs.

Fantastic filming and storytelling man! Brilliant film

Great to see you bag this one mate. I had a sneaky suspicion you’d enjoy it. Aside from a loose scree type push to the top of the penmaenbach summit, the arête itself is quality and always quiet too. Add to this the location, the fact the scramble starts at ground level, the short approach and it being right above the sea, it’s an absolute gem in my opinion. Great drone footage too, really captures the surroundings perfectly 👍🏻

beautiful grade 2 route - thanks for the heads up

Brilliant! Yet another beauty i need to visit. Looks like you could spend all day there finding different lines and challenging sections. Thanks dude!

Awesome vid 👍🏼 did this route last year. Very tasty in parts. There’s another grade 2- on Rhinog fawr south face. We tried to do this but we couldn’t find the start. Any plans to do this one?

Wonderful

Nice one again Daniel.Great effort.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

That car park was 50p last time I was there. The ridge looks superb in your video.

Love them drone shots of you climbing, really shows the terrain 👍👍

Great route. I love that you can be up and down in 2 hours and that it’s often dry and fine when the Ogwen Valley is grey and wet.

Awesome video! What do you think about taking this route in snowy conditions?

I’ve done this a couple of times. The second time I did it was in the snow. Was a bit sketchy over to the right of the scramble. But was easily able to avoid those bits by just moving over to the left.

It's not Cadair Idris, it's Cader Idris.

hard routes getting past allt he english people

Thanks! 🙋‍♂️ really helpful 👊💜👊

It looks like a mini north tryfan

Oh heck yeah. This one looks super fun

As a proud real Breton being Welsh in which I can trace my family back to the 17th century, you can’t blame English people for their past fore - fathers.

Nice video. Did the double ascent of this myself a few years back.

Cracking little route with awesome views 👍🏼

Superb film making Daniel. So many different camera and drone angles edited together.

Try the bolted route Daniel, on the far right side of the ridge it's a 3s/ v diff topping out on the ridge.

Hi, thanks for a great video! I used to live in the village below the scramble, and one day I climbed it. I must say that I found it quite intimidating in places, probably because I was alone, and I was quite glad to reach the top!

Drove past the Arete this afternoom. Only ever seen a party of 2 persons enjoying the ridge in over 20 years as you dive by. Should it be descended?

Great video Daniel. Super accessible route this one.

We drive past this regularly on our way back from Ogwen ends I allway stare at this dreaming of the scree surfing back down Thankyou very much Daniel we will probably be stopping here in the future on our way home for a quick blast

Confidence !

Great sunset spot, not too difficult

Im doing pyg tomorrow 5am

Nice Vlog, ive walked up Yr Wyddfa 3 times and 4 or 5 times on Train. Now 61 im Happy just to Watch Vlogs etc

I’ve experienced all of this racism, I lived and work in Barry and Rhoose for 7 years before moving to Spain and get less racism living in a tiny Spanish village than I did in Rhoose. Engineering company I worked at was worse, but I gave as good as I got

wow

Just watched for the second time. 👍

Racism, pure and simple!

Wales Never been never will

If my wife and I visit Ireland, we speak to each other in Danish in public even though we are both English (who happen to speak Danish). Locals rarely know what language that is, but just assume we're foreign visitors - not English - and that instantly neutralises any anti-English unpleasantness.

My ignitor didn't work on my x1 but I figured out a way to get around that issue other than that I enjoy cooking with my x1 nice review Daniel

A very different challenge on a wet day versus a dry one.

Great video. Thanks

Some of the Welsh speakers are very rude to non Welsh speakers. I've had countless incidents where the shopkeeper looks at you like a piece of excrement when you speak English, they either blank you or just point and mumble. You don't need to speak a second language to feel the hatred. Fortunately they are a minority in Wales. This is coming from someone who is an English speaking Welsh person, born and raised in North Wales. My aunt worked in a University Kitchen , where everyone spoke Welsh all day long around her , they totally ignored her like she didn't exist. Even at lunch time, she sat on her own and the Welsh speakers say together. Then after about three days one of them approached my auntie, and asked where she was from. My auntie replied that she is from Conwy. The woman said to her " then why don't you speak Welsh?" My auntie replied that her family never taught it to her , and in her area the first language is English. The Welsh speaking woman said " well if you're from here , you should be speaking Welsh not English"...... My auntie quit the job. Keep in mind this is at a university. Sometimes I feel like it's apartheid in Wales. Fortunately these ignorant people are massively in the minority.

The path down from the lake through all the industrial workings was used for the filming of the Inn of the Sixth Happiness. Based on the life of Gladys Aylward. It's a lovely walk 🙂

Yep total bollocks my wife and I are Welsh but born in England (No not inbred there happens to be a lot of us in Oxford 😀) but we can speak a fair bit of Welsh and understand a lot more and have never had a problem in North Wales even though we sound English until we said are families are from South Wales😀😀

Great video, bad enough going out in that weather never mind camping in it, what kind of sleeping bag do you reccommend

Thx for taking time. Scramble vids & website very helpful.

Thanks

Always great content even if you didn't enjoy it all. Your Welsh pronunciation is very good. Awesome drone work and editing.

Hi Baldy, we did this earlier in the year but starting from Bedgellert anti clockwise. There's an interesting mine portal on the river section. I usually carry some head torches, so we explored it. It's a long cross cut, probably trying to find a vein but it dead ends so they didn't find anything . We also did the underground mine tour in Signum which is very informative.

They all simultaneously switched to speaking Welsh -as if there was some kind of telepathic hive mind in action ha ha!
