Paul and I headed onto the Carneddau today to climb Amphitheatre Buttress. This is a classic V Diff that gives 10 pitches and almost 1000 ft of climbing. We moved quickly and topped out for lunch and some stunning views across the park. We looked at efficiency on long routes, the conversion from climbing to roped scrambling, belay construction and how to avoid rope faff. There were a couple of teams setting out after us so it was a popular choice in the sunshine today and the rock was dry and warm to vindicate that decision!
