"Retraced my steps from Disgwylfa Fawr SSW a little before cutting across and beelining for the top of this. Up to now the ground had been ok despite heavy rain, but it was boggy in the col between these two hills. On the south side of Disgwylfa Fawr a fire had burned all the gorse bushes. Crossed fence and sploshed onto higher ground and a little exertion took me to the top. Then the rain came. Made my way due south along the little ridge and then crossed stream and up slightly sodden to road and back to the car." — vygodski • Nov 1, 2025

"From the road SSW. Walked up the track to the farmhouse. You need to go right through the garden! ( A sign would have been nice to let people know this is actually a ROW). Gate at the back takes you into an enclosed field and then a broken style takes you into a grassy meadow. North for a bit then cross over fence (another broken style) takes you into open access land. Head to the west spur of this hill and a couple of double tracks in the grass become visible which round their way up to a couple of rocky crags, a ledged area about the size of a football pitch and then the last couple of tens of metres ascent to the top. The sedementary rock here is upright which creates a strange effect. Small cairn on summit. Then on to hill to the south." — vygodski • Nov 1, 2025

"This was an incredible day. I had set out to climb Tryfan only, and didn't start until around 13:30. I expected to get another inversion on the summit, however, that didn't materialise. Once down the south ridge of Tryfan, and at the start of Bristly Ridge, I decided to go for it up onto the Glyders with 99% certainty I would get my day 2 inversion! Unfortunately, my GPS started to play up the minute I entered the thick cloud after dark for the descent. I had intended to descend via Y Gribin, but with the GPS playing up and never doing that route before I decided to take the same way back down. Descending down Glyder Fach 'blind', I did relatively well but had gone off to the right too much towards Snowdon. Luckily the GPS sorted itself out after multiple reboots, and I hit the trail down towards the south ridge of Tryfan. The GPS then played up again, and I missed my right turn towards the car park near the north face of Tryfan. I was half way to Ogwen Cottage area when I realised what had happened, and had to slog my tired body back up the A5 :-) In hindsight, I should have gone back to Glyder Fawr and descended via Devils Kitchen, which I'm fully familiar with, but I..." — adventure-stricken • Oct 16, 2025
