  • Tryfan North Ridge Guided Hike.
    I was booked to take a friend on a guided hike up the North Ridge of Tryfan. This is an excellent scramble / hike and Ryan had only ever scrambled once over Striding Edge to Tryfan. He was apprehensive at first and unsure if this was something he could achieve but rose to the challenge and smashed it.
    This is my 3rd time up the north ridge and it's one of my favourite scrambles - it's got a bit of everything. If you haven't done it before it's certainly one to consider however take precautions as this is not for the faint hearted.
    Summits:
    ⛰️ Tryfan (918m / 3,011ft)
    If you're interested in booking me to run a guided hike for yourself, a group or even for your team then do get in touch.
    Enjoy the video!

    • @krisgleave

      Awesome well done Helen! Now you’ve done it, has that made you want to do more? If you go back there you have Bristly Ridge too just in front as you descend to put you on top of the Glyders and that’s fantastic too but definitely steeper so have to be careful. I have other videos on here of that one with the 360 camera. Well done though especially for your first scramble…it was the same for Ryan on this one

    Thanks for this video! I done this solo by accident yesterday when my Garmin died with almost no scrambling experience and I shat myself. Glad to see I chose 'the right' route tho. It was amazing getting to Adam and Eve but I definitely won't do it solo again. Cheers, great video 👊🏻

    • @krisgleave
      @krisgleave  2 месяца назад +1

      Well done though you’ve done well on your own. It’s basically straight up but do have to be careful you don’t stray too far left or right as it really gets steep and higher grade. It’s my favourite scramble but also you have Bristly Ridge to tackle after this if you ever return. Thats awesome too and straight after Tryfan in front of you.

    Great video of Tryfan, same way I went. That bit you described as lords rake is called the "nor nor gulley" as you said, don't do it if you you're not up to it. Accounts for. A 3rd of all ogwen mountain rescue callouts does tryfan! You can see why if the cloud comes down it's so easy to get off track.
    Good to see you back, and look forward to the next 👍 thanks

    • @krisgleave
      @krisgleave  Год назад +1

      I’ll remember the name of the gully next time thanks for that, I didn’t realise it had a name. Yeah I can imaging a lot of people over commit and maybe feel the pressure of having to do something they’re not comfortable with. I’ve never done it in poor conditions as try my best to research the weather first but imagine it really makes it tough especially if wet.

      It’s really good you’ll love it just be careful. There’s no set path up but watch mine as a guidance and as you ascend you’ll kind of see the way.
      You’ll get to a point where you’re not too sure as no exact route. Just try and stay pretty central. As long as you don’t go too far left or too far right you’ll be fine as they turn into Grade 2 scrambles.

    Amazing video! Because of the fact that it visually shows the path but I had one question, why does this path not show the north tower or east traverse path? Is this a different route up? Because it looks alot more manageable less high risk (not that I’m saying it easy) 😂

    • @krisgleave
      @krisgleave  2 месяца назад

      Hi Rifi thanks for your comment. I always go a similar route up there and think the two you mentioned are just to the side although sometimes I go straight up the north ridge too. I think the east traverse is to the left but lots of videos online specific to those too.

  • @TG-pd3ft
    @TG-pd3ft Год назад

    Good guide to the North Ridge. 9:30 the ET path to the top section of Nor Nor gully is the best bet for most as the north tower is G2 these days as it's so polished and greasy

      No way mate, your getting mixed up, the northen buttress is a grade 3 + on the east face!! with the terrace wall which is a sheer face never go up that way without a guide or if you have rope experience yourself. The lads on this video went up the top half of the nor nor gully which is a lot easier than the north tower ridge which you say is easier no way is it easier your more exposed in the wind the nor gully protects you a lot safer !

    • @krisgleave
      @krisgleave  2 месяца назад

      You come down the opposite side and you don’t have the exposure on the other side like on the way up however you will need to climb down rocks too. Once you descend those its paths all the way down past the lake at the bottom which will take you back to the road.

  • @trainingt837
    @trainingt837 7 месяцев назад

    Great video! Did Tryfan with some friends back in September, we used the Eastern Traverse like you, as opposed to doing the North Tower. Would you regard doing the North Tower as harder than the Eastern Traverse?

    • @krisgleave
      @krisgleave  7 месяцев назад

      It’s certainly more exposed and more of a scramble on the North Tower. I tend to do a hybrid. I go up most of the tower then pop out higher in the gully to get to the top. But whatever you’re comfortable with
