bobble hats

exosteve · 22-03-2014, 22:31

dunno if any of you like walking? off roading and walking don't tend to go together.
everytime weve been down a lane you would think the walkers enjoying there free time doin what they enjoy would smile

I love both.this is a nice walk but it can give you blisters on your fingers.ive done this twice but am not fit enough now

Bugger that, looks mental!

When I was a lot younger I did quite a bit of walking in the Lakes & enjoyed it with a smile on my face but these days every bobble hat looks so unhappy

Then became a mountain biker & got hated my most worst of all from the bobbles

, jump 15 or so years later got into 4x4's & now hated by everyone

A few of my mates did that recently, really wish i could have gone but here indoors moaned I didn't give her enough notice

I've been up Snowden a few times, but never via the Ridge Path (Crib Goch) though.

There have been a few fatalities on that route from bad weather and/or inexperience etc.

That guy did well to keep the camera in one hand and walk it as well!

Regards

My knees are a knocking just thinking about that

Did croagh Patrick over in Ireland in my mid twenties.

I did CG back in the day with school. No nanny state then

I got an award too because three lads got properly gripped by the old vertigo. The leader and myself had to physically place hand and foot for two of them to get off the ridge. The other lad was just bit of a girl and needed his mum. Any way it took us about 4 hours and then still had to go down to find the bus. Happy days

COOL, that has brought back some memories.

It is not too difficult, just advanced scrambling. It's just that it is a bit of a drop on both sides.
