Juneathon 26. In The Footsteps Of Mallory.

Posted: 26th June 2009 by Phil in Hills

I have just got back from another morning in the Mountains. I have been reading a biography on the late George Mallory. He spent a lot of his time in Snowdonia and i wanted to go to the places where he climbed. Today i went to a place called Craig Yr Ysfa. Which is a place Mallory and his mates used to climb a lot. A bonus to all this was that this location is quite close to a mountain called Tryfan a place where Sir Edmond Hillary and the 1952/53 Mount Everest team practiced climbs with all the Oxygen gear etc it’s also a place close to my heart because i nearly fell off the fucker last winter.

Anyway a great morning. I did a quick 4 miler for  for my Thrusday Juneathon.
