<\/p>\nSunday and another early start, this time planning to ascend the Devils Kitchen and up onto Y Garn.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Normally this is a long but quite easy paved route, today though the path was barely discernible under deep \u00a0snow and ice.\u00a0 Eventually reaching Llyn Cwn we turned North in conditions approaching white out at times.\u00a0 We eventually summit-ed and found room in the small shelter on the top.\u00a0 It was fairly busy on top even given the poor conditions.<\/p>\n After making twenty QSOs from Y Garn we were all pretty cold and pleased to head back down to the col. Conditions were deteriorating for the afternoon with rain forecast lower down but blowing blizzard conditions on the tops.<\/p>\n We reached Glyder Fawr a couple of hours later where we found shelter beside a few large rocks marking the summit. By this time the other two were fairly cold and wet so they weren\u2019t over pleased when I put another seventeen contacts into the log, including\u00a0 couple of summit to summit contacts It was still a long walk out but as we started to lose height the wind dropped and the weather improved. We finally got back to the car just as we lost the daylight.<\/p>\n In total over the weekend we activated four SOTA summits worth 48 points and made 53 QSOs over much of the North West and Midlands regions.\u00a0 We climbed nearly 3000 metres of mountain and spent 17\u00bd hours out walking.<\/p>\n Date \u2013 3rd February 2019<\/p>\n Postcode \u2013 LL24 0EU<\/p>\n Parking \u2013 SH 650 603<\/p>\n Radio \u2013 Kenwood TH-D74<\/p>\n Antenna \u2013 2 Ele Yagi +\u00a0MFJ Longranger<\/p>\n Band \u2013 144 FM<\/p>\n Contacts \u2013 20 + 17<\/p>\n SOTA points \u2013 8 (+3) & 10 (+3)<\/p>\n Group \u2013 Myself, Peter & Richard<\/p>\n Sunday and another early start, this time planning to ascend the Devils Kitchen and up onto Y Garn.
