Snow in Snowdonia
It has been very wintry in the mountains today with lots of the white stuff and pretty cold temperatures. The team and I headed up the Devils Kitchen and back down again as the snow fell down to the road level. The ground underneath is not frozen so there is no scope for winter climbing yet but carrying an axe and crampons is a good idea, especially after a good freeze tonight as its cold outside. The snow will become consolidated on the main paths and they will become icy and slippery so be careful!
This evening I was out on a rescue on Snowdon where a person had slipped on the Watkin path and suffered a head injury.
