CLIMBING TRYFAN | Working on my Fear Of Heights & Mountain Scrambling | Heather Terrace Route

I absolutely loved this ascent of Tryfan :D Hopefully this gives you an idea of what the Heather Terrace route is like. What an amazing mountain, so much fun, loads of scrambling with a lil walk here & there. I can’t believe how much more comfortable I am with heights & exposure than I was on Watkins, it seems my fear of heights is diminishing, slowly :) Maybe I'll get up on that north ridge one day 😬
Ps. Apologies if I'm pronouncing Tryfan wrong, which I almost certainly am. Also sorry about my plait flapping all over the place, that's annoying as hell isn't it haha!

Hello Wild Ones! Thanks for stopping by this lil Tryfan viddy, I’m so pleased how my fear of heights is gradually improving :D If you have any suggestions for routes in England or Wales that are good to work on fear of heights & exposure (but not as severe as Crib Gogh or Tryfan North Ridge - not ready for these yet 😄), please stick them below, thankies! See you next week for a fun overnighter in the woods :D have a great eve! Claire 🌿🐻

Hi Claire, Bassenthwaite village to Skiddaw in the Lakes. It’s mostly solid on the way up with paths but, if you want, there is scree scrambling if you traverse the peak to build up ‘resilience’ 😀

Claire, book yourself a couple of nights in the Black Sail hut in Ennerdale, and do the high level route to Pillar Rock. (Then up onto Pillar itself, then back down to the hut the easy (and obvious) way. You have to find the entrance to the route by a cairn, but there's nothing desperate, just a tiny bit of exposure and sensational views...Black Sail is one of my favourite places on the planet - try it soon.😁👌 Hi again Claire...A good approach to Black sail is from Honister Hause - you have the choice of taking in Grey Knotts, Brandreth, Green Gable, Great Gable, then down to the hut for your first night...two great days walking with the high level route next day. Shout if you have questions...😁

Well done! I can sympathise with your fear as I climbed the north ridge of Tryfan at the weekend with my heart in my throat for much of the climb, also with a fear of heights: climbing up a ladder does me in, so this was a big deal - but I loved it. Great video!

Good work on completing that route. My friends go straight up North Ridge but they realised I don't deal with exposure due to my fear of heights. The route you came down was my first time up but I needed a few Recon hikes to the lake for a proper view of the scramble up South Ridge. All the while I was trekking around to get used to the openness of the scenery while climbing Snowden via different routes. Like you said "us southerners are not used to heights " Just got a new phone & found a picture of Tryfan's Heather Terrace & saved to my homescreen. Best memories of the first time I saw the mountain driving through the Ogwen Valley, "one day, oh yes, one day "

Hello Claire. This reminds me of Under Milkwood by Dylan Thomas.. What is there in this valley to feast a poets eyes.... What is here but ragged earth against the ragged skies... You have reminded me how special and beautiful this land can be. Being free to roam is for all of us even a walk into the countryside can benefit us all. I love to take walks on the wild side. Take food and drinks and cooking out there is something i have done for years when i can. I would love to write about my past adventures if only i knew the way... Regards Mick from Hampshire.. Xx

Hey WB, I really enjoyed this one in particular. I appreciate your good production quality with the gently inspiring music. Would like to do this one, and like you, I would attempt to climb Adam and Eve, but jumping across them? I also think not. The hike / climb up Tryfan looks like a good workout not only for the legs, but also for the upper body and arms, with the scrambling, and looks like just the right challenge, and fun. Kudos. Enjoying yours from Michigan USA. I've heard of Snowdonia, but yours are the most exposure I've had to it. Carry on. Thanks!!

Wow! Memories of the mid-seventies and going there as a teen after our O-Levels. We camped at the end of the Llyn Ogwen, down by the waterfalls and we skinny dipped in Llyn Idwal. (You can see it down in the valley in one of your shots). Then we moved our camp to partway up Tryfan and did the mountain the next day. Yep! Hard!!! Lots of scratched legs and hands. But it was the hottest summer, it was before the school holidays and we were the only people there. The view was spectacular. Needless to say, I am envious!

Great job, brought back wonderful memories of crazy days on Tryfan, one of my all time favourite mountains. I've done most routes several times, and the best IMHO is the north ridge, although you need to be confident with heights and route finding on very steep scrambly ground. My daughter and I last did it a couple of years ago when she was only 16, and it was an epic day for the ages, with memories to last a lifetime, we'll definitely be back !

I remember climbing this in 1993? This brought back some memories as you pretty much took the same route. There was about 30 people on the summit when I eventually got there waiting to jump across Adam and Eve. As I was looking around the SAR helicopter came around and flew BELOW me. I was crapping myself. I've never felt so relieved to get down a mountain. Well done!

One for the future, at Bwlch Tryfan you could have gone up the zigzag path to the left of Brissly ridge over the Glyders and then down through Devil’s kitchen or carry on to y Garn then down to Cwm Idwal and Ogwen cottage, a good circular route with a camp high up.

Lovely video, genuinely feel happier after watching your channel. I love meeting and chatting with mountain folk. I had two days in the Ogwen valley myself last week and on one of the days did a scrambling day with Steve from Anelu Aim Higher which was very useful and definitely feel more confident on routes I wouldn’t have attempted before even though I’ve been going to the mountains for many years would highly recommend.
