Aber falls was a fab discovery - but very busy. But the crowds are quickly left behind. It's a difficult choice as to when to turn left to Llwytmor, but talking to another walker who turned left a lot later couldn't find a better path further up. Nice to visit the main ridge again.andrewroberts04/06/2023

7th top of 9 on a 22.5k km route from the Aber Falls upper car park with Adrian, climbing Moel Wnion, Gyrn, Moel Faban, Gyrn Wigau, Drosgl and then intermittent snow fields taking the track over to the top. We climbed a mini- Cantilever stone en-route before reaching the obvious summit pinnacle. Continuing to Llwytmor via a large loop to avoid losing too much height......Dazingdale06/04/2019
