I've done Grib Goch 3 times. Twice in good weather and once in late autumn with the army (there was no turning back!) in high wind & cold rain. We were roped-up with our feet down on one side with hands on the ridge inching along.
It was my most scariest experience ever, of the great out doors! It took so long, that halfway along the ridge, darkness descended and we returned down the railway track to Llanberis.
Have down some summer snow & ice crappon work, with guides (3 to 1) in the Stubai Alps, Austria, using the mountain huts. We had good weather and it was absolutly super!
I can remember the first walk up from Solden to out first hut, the Siederland (about 2800M). It took about 6 hours, but some of our party were actually on their hands and knees going through the door, wacked out! They just were not fit for the trip!
Cheers!
