From YHA Kings with Richard and Denise, then on to Coed y Gribin.Tony J18/02/2018
Summit clear of vegetation- moss/ grass/ a few rocky outcrops- the highest of two knolls. Good viewpoint. Walked up from King's YH. Not as bad a thrash as feared, mainly followed ridge/wall SW. With Tony and Richard.Denise 18/02/2018
From Kings YH with Denise and Tony. Good path along ridge. Most westerly peak is the highest, great views.RichardM18/02/2018
After lunch, from King's YHA - straight forward ascent following the dry stone wall.DanMaisieBex17/02/2018
After Coed y Gribin, crossed path, found bramble free ascent, over wall then easy grassy ridge, over lower E top (SH 67387 16529) to mossy knoll HP at W end above a crag, looking down on the real Twr Glas, a blunt non technical lump to W. Thought of going back that way but looks hard work, in remaining daylight strolled back NE along ridge to meet path, and back SW along path to start. Last of a good winter weekend tumping around Dolgellau. Just 13 left in Gwynedd now.RHW03/12/2017
