David Preston's Walking Log   

The Snowdon Horseshoe 14/10/03 - Weather sunny

This walk around the Snowdon Horseshoe included Crib Goch, Crib y Ddysgl, Snowdon, Y Lliwed, Lliwedd East Peak,Lliwedd Bach, Gallt Wenallt- Although only around 8 miles this was one of the toughest walks I have done for a long time. Crib Goch was exciting but scary and I would be cautious about doing this ridge again  except in very good conditions

Walk taken from John and Anne Nuttalls Book - Mountains of England and Wales - Volume 1 Wales
