Wtf lol, we gonna go up that hill one day joe an am gona throw ye down bwahhahahah lol jokes, wud love to do tha tho to see if u can fly

haha. I aint R Kelly.

you have a good time then?

There were some pretty ladies there . one of them was wearin short shorts duno if Matty managed to take a snap tho

PERVERTS!!!!

Yer jst didnt like goin up it or comin back down but apart from that the scenerys amazin, am sure Matty will post them up. Matty kept chattin away wen i was tryin to save energy to go up

If matty was in space without air he would still find somthing to talk about lol

Well, we arrived back about 10pm. Had a great day, the weather was surprisingly great, lovely and sunny most of the way, except for the top lol.

Didnt get there until 2:30ish cos of funny GPS directions lmao, we set off about 2:45 and I "nearly reached the summit" about 5pm, but I had to wait for Pomp as I would have lost him in the clouds, he was about 10 - 20 minutes behind me as he had entered the 2007 Snowdon Tortoise Race.

Anyway, we got to the top at about 5:20 in the end, sat off for about 45 minutes chattin to people, havin a munch etc, admiring the view and making a new mate.

Here are some photos:


Mt Snowdon


Pomp in front of Snowdon, about half way up.


Me in front of Snowdon with the customary Tesco bag containing a pure munch lol!


The last time we could actually see anything, the clouds became to thick any higher up. We were about 300 - 400 ft from the summit.


The summit marker!


Pomp at the summit!


Me at the summit!


The top of the summit marker - it lists the distances to loads of welsh places... nothing for England though, that sucks!


Our new mate lol! Scroungin for food he was!! And he wouldnt stop talking to us haha!


One of the views on the way down, probably about 1200ft from the summit


Another view from about 1000ft from the summit, had to clean this one up a lot as it was very cloudy, so the colours a bit crap!!


Snowdon as we left it!

Ive got loads and loads more photos (took about 450) and also a load of videos too, so I will sort them all out when I have the time.

Got some excellent shots on the way down, even managed to get some sunset photo's lol!

Had a great day, would do it again anytime, the weather was sweet and on the way back it was very hot and the sun was shining. On the way up the sun was playing hide and seek with us, which was good as I wouldnt have liked to have climbed it in blistering heat!

Overall, id deffo recommend it to peeps!

Amazing views.

fantastic pic:



haha can't forget the pure munch in a tescos bag - it makes any day out complete lol

hehe i've been up there before - is there still a cafe or wotever it is towards the top? was closed when we went up

Matty,

The Tesco's bag lol



Love these summit pics lol
As in matty hasnt been here before as i get my model stance.



Posers on the mountain / broke back mountain ?

Looks like you had a great day lads good for you

Yeah, there is a cafe, but its all shut this year, as well as the train service.

They are apparently re-developing it all:



So every now and again on the way up, randomly plonked in the middle of nowhere, you see one of these:



Lol! To be fair, from the amount we could see, they are probably about half way through the redevelopment of the site, the building it almost built etc...

It should be open in time for next summer apparently.

haha love the boarded up bobcat

havent been up there for years, was about 8 at the time lol

i might have to plan a a mission up there next time i am down that way - take the missus up the mountain, hmm, i'm getting ideas

sounds like you both had a good day matty we all glad you never lost pomp lol and you got him home safe

wkd pics! i fancy a trip myself!

We might be going up Sacfell Pike in a few months or summit. I say might because we certainly havent decided to yet by any means, but if we do we will let peeps know on here.

Apparently Pomp might be going up Snowdon again soon...
