Bunch of us off to North Wales (Llanberris area most prob) this weekend and after a must do tick list of classic problems. Any suggestions?

[ding dong]

the Pinch            -sheep pens
Elephantitis         -gwynant
mallory crack     -pen y gwryd
ultimate warrior -cwm pennant
animal magnetism -caseg fraith

long walk-ins wasnt my priority, honestly.

sheep pens is a full session venue.

the others might be a bit spead out for a whislte stop tour,
on second thoughts.

main vein - caseg boulder
jerrys roof, barrel traverse etc...

if you get rained on just go to the cave, clever beaver, lou ferrino, trigger cut etc...

[John Cooke]

Done the pinch and jerry's and malory's i think as well... Cheers for t'other suggestions though will ch ch check em out. Is the Caseg boulder the same as Caseg Fraith? Is it a trek?

Still havn't been to Parasella's Definately got to get my arse over there at some point!

[ding dong]

main vein definately,amazing problem, but v9 i think even by the heel scum method.
the caseg boulder is above bethesda, caseg friath is toward the capel curig end of ogwen.

Presumably modesty prohibits Ding Dong from recommending The Gimp @ The Caseg Boulder; and it is less frustrating than Main Vein (should you happen to have short legs).  Reverse the last sentence should you be lanky.

Yeah don't just do the Pinch.  Do all the up problems and the link ups you can manage on the main wall.  Maybe use the other little two boulders to warm up on, or better still start at Caseg Fraith.  Once you've ticked Caseg Fraith (presumably excepting Repeat After Me) you should be warmed up and ready for Sheep pen.  Plus you'll have done better quality low grade stuff than exists at Sheep pen.  

Finish the day by going to Braichmelyn and doing the arete from sitter, it's class.  A good three venue day that.
