Me and Luke had no experience in climbing before it turned out we had nothing to if anything we should\u2019ve been exited as we were soon to find out.<\/p>\n<p>We started off on a small rocky path and after five minutes were already complaining about various things we were soon to find out this was nothing. We slowly climbed towards Snowdon gradually climbed higher and had regular stops for food and drinks. We slowly trudged round the corner of a smaller mountain to finally find an amazing view of Snowdon.<\/p>\n<p>The path ahead was rocky and very narrow. There was a ladder separating two mountains but I didn\u2019t see the point of it being there. It was just a waist of wood and it could have been used into so many things but I won\u2019t name any because I can\u2019t be asked. Then we ate a bit of our lunch that was very nice. After that we went through a narrow path. The path was very slippery and wet. After we got through the path, we saw a breath taking view of all the mountains and a lake. Then we saw a tree that grew coins on it. I found that very interesting but there was no point because a lot of people could just come and take it out of the bark.<\/p>\n<p>Then we had lunch and we were very close to the top of the mountain the flapjack was well deserved. After we ate our lunch, we carried on our adventure towards the peak of the mountain. Then we finally got to the top of the mountains and the view was amazing. We saw people on mountain bikes and I thought that it would be basically impossible to go up the mountain on them. We then gone up a set of stairs and I was very scared. After we enjoyed our view, we started to make our way down the hill.<\/p>\n<p>The journey down the hill was extremely tiring we scrambled down a steep hill and finally onto a slate path then a long trudge down to halfway house were we rested and tended to our blisters feeling comfier we happily walked to the mini bus stop where we sat down and waited for the low rumbling of the mini bus it had been quite a day.<\/p>\n<p>By Fred and Luke<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<style type='text\/css'>\r\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\r\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\r\n\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\r\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\r\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\r\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\r\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\r\n\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\r\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\r\n\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\r\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\r\n\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t<\/style>\r\n\t\t<!-- see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php -->\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-3496 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail gallery1'><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n\/\/ <![CDATA[\r\n\tjQuery(document).ready(function () {\r\n\t\tjQuery(\".gallery1 a\").attr(\"rel\",\"gallery1\");\t\r\n\t\tjQuery('a[rel=\"gallery1\"]').colorbox({maxWidth:\"95%\", maxHeight:\"95%\",title: function(){ return jQuery(this).children().attr(\"alt\"); }, });\r\n\t});\r\n\/\/ ]]>\r\n<\/script>\n<dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon\">\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/indoorsout.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_7945.jpg\" title=\"\" rel=\"gallery1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/indoorsout.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_7945-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\r\n<\/dt><\/dl><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon\">\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/indoorsout.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_7946.jpg\" title=\"\" rel=\"gallery1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/indoorsout.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_7946-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\r\n<\/dt><\/dl><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon\">\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/indoorsout.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_7952.jpg\" title=\"\" rel=\"gallery1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/indoorsout.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_7952-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\r\n<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon\">\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/indoorsout.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_7962.jpg\" title=\"\" rel=\"gallery1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/indoorsout.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_7962-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\r\n<\/dt><\/dl><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon\">\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/indoorsout.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_7939.jpg\" title=\"\" rel=\"gallery1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/indoorsout.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_7939-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\r\n<\/dt><\/dl>\r\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today (Monday 31st) our group went to Snowdon first, this was daunting as it was the tallest mountain in Wales and this was our first outing.
