The Flak Jacket took some flak!
It has been pretty wild out n the mountains today and my Crux Flak jacket had to earn its keep as we had lashing rain and 70mph winds. I have been joined by repeat client Mick and by Rob & Tony for an intro to scrambling course. This morning making our plans in the cafe we had to allow for 80mph summit winds, snow in the gullies, flooded rivers and torrential rain! We headed into Cwm Idwal and introduced the guys to grade 1 ground, looking at movement skills and looking after each other in Seniors Gully. From Cwm Cneifion we dropped back into Cwm Idwal and did some rope skills including abseiling and body belays using just a rope. A wild but enjoyable day!
