Idwal Slabs - The Ordinary Route (Diff - 140m)

-


I took my son (Garmon) climbing today as he had wanted to climb the slabs for ages. There was quite a cold wind blowing this morning so we decided to venture over to Cwm Idwal this afternoon so that the sun could warm us up a bit. As it happened, there was hardly a breath of wind on the climb and hardly anyone about. There were only three other parties climbing on the slabs as well as a party on the sub cneifion arete. This was only Garmon's second multi pitch climb but he really enjoyed it and is chomping at the bit to get out and do some more but it'll be Gruffudd's turn next.

I was over in Shropshire over the last few days conducting some assessments on a variety of rope activities such as high ropes courses, abseiling and climbing. During today's assessments we were visited by a very special guest and a hero of mine. "Tell 'em about the honey mummy" it was no other than the Honey Monster! The HM was on site during a photo shoot and was trying out various activities. I also had the pleasure of assessing a distant relative of Sir George Everest today and I'm glad to say he passed his abseiling with flying colours, as did everyone else. 😊✔
