The other Y-Garn

We were looking for new walks around Rhyd-Dhu and Y-Garn at the start of the Nantll ridge stood as one we should look at. It was a very dominant structure as as we stood at the bottom realised what a tough ascent we had chosen as it just rose from the floor and just kept getting steeper all the way.

The weather held though and it was a great challenge with no rush. There were a few passed but they looked in a rush to get onto the ridge.

Just as it couldnt get any harder the top leveled off and we walked up onto the top.

We headed out and had a look at the start of the Nantll ridge and it did look superb. However today with wet rock and blowing hard was not the day to go for it but a target for the future. We turned and headed down just in time for a shower of rain, at least we had made it to the top first.
