Bit of a funny one this month, as although I knew at some point I wanted to undergo something at this location, I'm not sure what..
Behold the Chasm of the Snowdon Lady Copper Mine!
This impressive hole is found above Ben's Bunkhouse near Nant Peris and has previously been explored by Mr Crook (and Prussiked out of again). I'm sure you have noted its lush colouration and aesthetic rock bridges, mainly a touch too damp for standard climbing, but an exemplary situation for an adventure!
I have theorised that a weighted line may secure protection from the architecture, providing for an unconventional ascent. Also, if this winter follows through on all its promises, a truly memorable winter "condition" line may be experienced.
Enjoy.
These are my meandering musings on Climbing, Adventure, Esoterica, and Rocks of both types; solid and not

Things that make me happy
Firstly, This month saw me leading outside for the First time since May with some very special friends.
Last week I returned to micro adventures, I was granted an hour to investigate a rumour that some sponsored heroes were visiting scrag end..
