    Thanks for taking the time to explain the hazards and inform on Mountain leaders. Too many videos avoid the important stuff. Great vid fella.

    Fabulous video Alex. Did Tryfan when I was 60, but now in my 70s I think I will leave it to you young’uns! Coming to Snowdonia soon though to do some hiking and photography, so will admire Tryfan from afar and look back on a great experience. We did it in the snow, but we had a guide from Plas Y Brenin, so were in good hands.

      Thank you Peter! That’s awesome that you’ve done it in the snow, I can imagine that was an amazing day out! Hope you have a great trip to Snowdonia, one of my favourite places to take photos with its dramatic scenery, Tryfan always makes for a good photo. Thank you Peter 😁👍

    Another banger mate - looks like you had almost identical conditions to those we had a year ago! Love the shoutout too - although clearly not a legend like Lucy! Nice switch up on genre of music too - works well with the GoPro.

      Thank you so much bro! That trip we did is easily one of my favourite days out in the mountains, what a day!!
      😂😂 mate you know you’re in the legend bracket, she got the extra shout for keeping us safe that day 😂
      Hope you’re having a blast in the Colorado mountains mate! Big love ❤️

    You find you end up going up slightly different ways each time. You will have to find The Cannon en route next time 👍 Brilliant fun to be had on the North ridge. Nice video

    Loved the video! I thought maybe there was some footage of the canon rock formation thing around 10:09, but maybe that wasn’t it. Anyways, gorgeous hike and views, thanks for sharing! 🤩

    18:10 this is exactly the same as me. When I first did Tryfan I saw the stone, but the second time I did it I didn't see it at all. I unintentionally took such a different route the second time round

    Sure is lovely when you drive through that valley and you see tryfan in the distance with snow on it, like something out of lord of the rings lol

    Tryfan is a fantastic mountain. The North face is great. I did a wild camp the other month next to the tarn at the bottom of Bristly Ridge, Llyn Bochlwyd I think it is. Great spot for a camp 👍🏼.
    Great video mate.

    Absolutely epic scramble up the North face, lovely challenge that! Beautiful scenery, very well captured on film as usual Alex. What a fab place it is. You should definitely get a head or chest cam Mount sorted, that would be great. Can’t wait to get some serious scrambling done later this year. It looks like I will return to the Peaks but also having a week in the Yorkshire Dales too.

    • @alexcripps.outdoors
      @alexcripps.outdoors  Год назад +1

      Cheers Greg!! It really is an awesome scramble. Will definitely be purchasing something to get some better shots when scrambling, also been looking at the 360 cameras but can’t justify the price at the minute!! 😅. Sounds great!! The Dales are beautiful, somewhere I need to explore a little more. Thanks Greg 👍😁

  • @chrisbentleywalkingandrambling
    @chrisbentleywalkingandrambling Год назад +2

    Certainly an epic scramble, Alex. It's too much for me, but it's great to see you accomplish it. It's always great to see a vlog drop from you.

    Earned a like just from yout first pronounciation of Tryfan! Most people don't even try to harden to 'f' at all, but that was pretty good. As an educational point, you can pretty much substitute it for a 'v' - 'ff' if our soft version

    Incredible video, man. Went up today for my first time and sadly had to turn back at the point where you're basically rock climbing near the summit. Every single surface was like ice with all of the rain and not worth risking it. The route you took is the route I had planned in my AllTrails and the way down after you summit is so much easier than going back down the way you came up! Was a battle to get back down. Always frustrating to not make it up but much more confident to do it again on a dry day.

      I climbed up yesterday with my son. It was our 1st time in Snowdonia. Intention was to do the Horseshoe. Took us about 3 hours to reach the top and just over 2 to get back via the south summit descent. We are not the speediest though

      Cnicht has a good starter scramble at the top also grade 1 but nowhere near that level of exposure.

  • @beyondhorizons9758

    F in Welsh is pronounced as V - so it is pronounced Trivan, not Trifan - I am not Welsh, just been corrected by locals :)

  • @The_Wayfarers
    @The_Wayfarers Год назад

    Great video! 👍🏽
    Not to be pedantic but as a matter of info, it’s actually pronounced “thri-van” not “trifan”. Welsh is distinctly different from English

    If you use the car park on the a5 do you have to come down the way you went up or is there an easier route to take down training in the gym and doing some small things but getting ready to do this for the first time with my brother we both never done before so little anxious and ovbs wanna stick to the grade one part for most if not all of it so fingers crossed! 🤞
