Here are a few photographs from an early morning climb with Martyn Middleton. It was when last week's bout of high pressure was upon us, and hence the early start. We initially opted to climb Brant Direct on Clogwyn y Grochan, Llanbersis Pass. Brant Direct is a chimney feature with a few bulges, which requires, inter alia, bridging techniques and jamming techniques. We also climbed the first two pitches of Brant, to then abseil off the route, as the heat of the sun had finally made its impact on Clogwyn y Grochan, not least the whole of Llanberis Pass.
