  • Llyn Crafnant and Geirionydd from Capel Curig
    Llyn Crafnant and Geirionydd from Capel Curig Route Summary: This is a straightforward circuit that you can do at almost any time of the year. Starting from Capel Curig, the route travels over moorland, into two beautiful valleys containing lakes, and finally some forestry (there’s got to be a down side!. Its highest point is only about 340m, and the distance about 15km. Credit for this walk goes to Mr Andrew Jones, who used it several times when the weather was too poor to take us into the higher mountains. The walk begins at Capel Curig, and then goes over grassy ground to Llyn Craftnant. You walk around the lake, and then after a walk through trees reach Llyn Geirionedd, which is used for water sports. The walk goes along the length of the lake, and then cuts back through the forest. The original route went down the road to the Ugly House, but I feel that the forest route is more enjoyable. Distance Ascent Time 15.45 km 586 m 4-5 hours Start and Finish: Capel Curig Facilities: Pubs, shop and cafes in Capel Curig. Cafe on the shores of Llyn Crafnant. The Route This was the second time I completed this circuit, and after a couple of silly errors in navigation last time (all caused by enthusiasm), I was determined to complete this simple walk without problems. The route starts opposite the Pinnacle cafe, and you pass the church (now a decent B&B) on the right up a field, where navigation is relatively straightforward. Just ensure you dont embark on any steep climbs to the ridge just yet, and the path takes you through woodland and onto wet moorland.

  • THE OGWEN VALLEY MOUNTAIN RESCUE ORGANISATION 43Rd
    THE OGWEN VALLEY MOUNTAIN RESCUE ORGANISATION 43rd ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR 2007 Published by the Ogwen Valley Mountain Rescue Organisation Bryn Poeth, Capel Curig, Betws-y-Coed, Conwy LL24 0EU Edited by Dave and Jo Worrall © OVMRO 2008 Please note that the articles contained in the Annual Report express the views of the individuals and are not necessarily the views of the Team. Argraffwyd gan / Printed by: Gwasg Ffrancon Dol Dafydd, Bethesda, Gwynedd LL57 3LY Contents Team AGM 2007 Chairman’s Foreword It is hard to believe that over nine months have flown by and it is almost time for another AGM. Where does time go these days? I feel extremely honoured to have been entrusted with the Chairmanship of the Organisation. I am also very proud to be a member of such a hard working and friendly team of very individual people. The friendship and camaraderie must surely be hard to beat in ‘normal’ walks of life. Due to the nature of our chosen activities, be them climbing, walking, mountaineering etc. we are all very strong minded, outspoken people and many of us have knocked heads with each other a few times but when we are on a callout, all that is forgotten and the teamwork is a joy to behold. There are many people we as a team need to send thanks to but most of all must be the long suffering friends and partners. Whilst we are out ‘playing’ on rescues they have to try and get back to sleep. Being woken up for a callout in the early hours does not just affect the team member but also most people in the house.
