Freeze/Thaw looks promising

The thaw that has taken place over the last couple of days has stripped a lot of the snow from the mountains but this is not necessarily a bad thing. The gully lines and tops have retained a reasonable coating and there is more snow and colder temperatures forecast for mid week. This should provide a good solid base for some promising climbing conditions - fingers crossed!
I have been at Plas Y Brenin today being assessed for an Emergency Care in Mountain Rescue First Aid course. This involved a written exam and several scenarios. I enjoyed a nice walk on the Carneddau afterwards to clear my head!
