Page Crags of the Southern Rhinogydd Copyright © 2019 Steep Stone™ - All Rights Reserved The Rhinogydd The Rhinogydd are a range of mountains located in Central Snowdonia, south of the Afon Dwyryd, east of Harlech, west of the A470 and north of the Afon Mawddach. Rhinogydd is the Welsh plural form of Rhinog, which means ‘threshold’. It is thought that the use of Rhinogydd derives from the names of two of the higher peaks in the range, namely Rhinog Fawr and Rhinog Fach. The Rhinogydd are notably rocky towards the central and northern end of the range, especially around Rhinog Fawr, Rhinog Fach and Moel Ysgyfarnogod. This area is littered with boulders, outcrops and large cliffs, all composed of perfect gritstone. The southern end of the range around Y Llethr and Diffwys has a softer, more rounded character, but this does not mean that there is an absence of climbable rock.

Smoking will be allowed only in designated areas outside residence halls. According to Sharon Krueger, the reasoning behind these measures is simple. Secondhand smoke is just as harmful to the body as smoking itself. More than 87% of the student body finds smoke bothersome and they also lend strong support for the no smoking policy. The intrusive nature of smoke makes it quite difficult to con- tain it in one specific room.

  • Danger Zones: the Nose
    AAC Publications Danger Zones: The Nose Where And Why Accidents Occur On El Cap's Most Popular Route The Nose of El Capitan began capturing people’s attention well before the first ascent in 1958. Long, aesthetic, and immediately visible upon entering the Valley, it has all the makings of a classic line. At 5.9 C2, the Nose is considered to be the easiest full-length route on El Capitan, which makes it extremely popular and draws relatively inexperienced big-wall climbers. But the Nose also is a complex climb, requiring a large repertoire of techniques that may be unfamiliar to newcomers. In the nearly 60 years since it was first climbed, the Nose has seen more than its share of accidents. We surveyed the last 41 years of incidents reported in Accidents in North American Mountaineering (1974–2014 publication dates). Of the 101 reports from El Capitan published during that time span, 41 (by far the largest concentration) covered incidents on the Nose, involving 44 separate parties. The Nose is unusual for El Capitan because all of its bivouacs are on natural ledges and because there is a high percentage of free climbing on the route, compared with the steeper, blanker aid climbs to either side. (Only the Salathé Wall is similar in these ways.) Nevertheless, the most common accidents on the Nose, including leader falls, falling objects, and stranding in foul weather, are also common on other El Cap routes, and many of the lessons apply to other big-wall climbs, both in Yosemite Valley and elsewhere.

  • David's Basics of Big Walling Evening We Will Be Doing Active Teaching
    David’s Basics of Big Walling Evening We will be doing active teaching. The idea is that by doing something, rather than just hearing me say it, you stand more chance of remembering it. Do the activities in pairs or triples – one person can read the instructions while the other one does the activity; then swap roles on the next activity. Try to tick off as many of the activities as you can before you leave, but don’t expect to do them all – you can’t learn the whole of the topic in an hour or two. If there is something you don’t understand, ask. Big wall tips. Read these AFTER you have done the activities – they will make more sense then. A copy of this document is on my website: www.multipitchclimbing.com 1. You can’t have too many lockers. Take mainly twist locks. 2. You can’t have too many snap gates. 3. Screwgates don’t stay done up. 4. The belay needs to be clean and readable for speed and safety. 5. Make the lockers you first clip into the bolts on belays large ones. This is because they are likely to end up with other lockers and bits of rope clipped or tied to them. 6. At belays make sure you have two different forms of attachment at all times – normally the rope and one daisy – attached to two different parts of the anchor. The haul bag also needs to be tied in twice. (If you drop the bag it will fall whole length of the haul line and might rip the belay from the wall.) 7.
