I was wondering how long it would take you to find it. :o

I was reading your logs for your caches today (seeing if the series is worth doing) and I glanced at the "events hidden" and saw the number 2  :o

But the listing says we haven't decided on a path, I thought we agreed on the Ryhd ddu path? Poor walk tall, you changed the d/t ratings too  :D

Thought it best not to commit to a route, after all we might change our mind as there is still 3 months to go.

Yes, good thinking  ;D

I am even more excited now, my dad said when he was my age he RAN up Snowdon to the summit without stopping!  :o

I think what me and my dad will do is:

Depart very early Sunday, and find caches/go sight seeing in the area throughout the day, before arriving wherever we are staying for the night. Then on the Monday, get up in time for whenever we'll start the walk to the summit. When down, maybe visit a few more places, then go home.

Anyone else got a similar plan?

Almost a carbon copy of what I am doing, I am going to try and fit in a climb up Tryfan whilst I am there.

I will almost certainly be staying in Bangor Travelodge, just waiting for Omis to confirm if he is coming so that I can book the room.

We'll be staying at Bangor Travelodge nearly for sure too  :o 

Just waiting to book the day off before booking...

I was looking at Tryfan too, but don't know if we'll do that one - I want to fill some of the higher d/t ratings while I'm there.

I'm looking on the map right now to see if there are any other good climbs in the area  ;D

As we will also be staying in the Bangor Travelodge, I like the look of this nearby series for the sunday... only 4 miles, so could fit it in as soon as we get there, then do some higher d/t ones for the rest of the day (climbs etc).

Aber Falls

Anyone else planning on doing it?

Mine is still the same game plan, go and get that D1.5/T5 cache on sunday and then see what time I've got left for other caches. Hope to book a YHA close to route start  ;D
