Last hike of 2025

We both had time off, and the weather was nice, so Neil and I went on another hike. We did something that could have been a Thursday Night in summer, except that it was slightly too sensible for that. But we started in Llanberis, popped by Castell Dolbadarn, did the sneaky path to the Llanberis Path, soon came off it again to cross the valley, and headed into Maesgwm. Soon after we left the path we stopped for lunch. And after that we did the ridge with Foel Gron and Moel Eilio. It was a bit nippy but ok! And the ground was quite firm. And it was cloudy, but the views were still great. We met several people I knew from running along the way. That was nice too! And the descent had some iciness but nothing to worry about. And we were back in time to hit the outdoor store. A successful mission!
