Yesterday Amy and I climbed Gambit Climb (S) on Clogwyn Y Ddysgl. While I wasn't overly impressed with the climbing (for a route that is described as one of North Wales best 'easy' routes) the view from the top was well worth it.
We toped out at about half 7pm to a gorgeous atmospheric sun/mist combo.
I hadn't been up high on the mountains for quite some time, I felt very lucky to live in such a beautiful area.
