Well done Darren. Are you going to try climbing back down now?

How about Scar Fell and Ben Nevin?  Will you go for the trio?

Not so sure about the trio,,,,I'll put that to him,,,,funny how we think about the climb up ,,,,,,but not the way back ,

Congratulations Darren - a great challenge for you and excellent result for your chosen charity. I am sorry am late replying:-)

I used to go youth hostelling with my school in the fifties, and the way up Snowdon never looked like this!  We took our life in our hands.... one teacher to about ten of us. We stayed in a Hostel in Beddgelert and it smelled like a stable.

He did it for  Breast cancer charity as his mum was diagnosed late last year ,( she's doing well ) ,,,,

Last year he did the iron man challenge to raise money for BLF,,,,,,

I love Wales especially north Wales ,,,mew had a caravan near  Barmouth for years ,,,sold it 4 years ago ,,,,,as it got be very samey ,,,,,and our daughters family were going less and less as Lois grew up and wanted to see her school friends at weekends ,,mmSometimes I wish we'd still got it ,xx

You still have great memories though Georgina!  My late father had a place on the Lleyn Peninsula so when my daughter was small, we spent quite a lot of time between there and Anglesey.  Beautiful walks.
