The 14 Peaks of Wales
There are 14 peaks in Wales over 3000 feet, or so I thought until recently. Apparently Tryfanâs credentials are under suspicion. Despite being one of the most handsome mountains in the Snowdonia National Park itâs height of 3002 feet has always meant that it only ever just scraped over the pass mark. Three men, John Barnard, Graham Jackson and Myrddyn Phillips are out to put the issue to rest once and for all however. Theyâve already got form in this area having recently highlighting that Sgurr nan Ceannaichean did not qualify as a Munro Mountain. The Munroâs being the Scottish equivalent of the over 3000 feet club. I for one really hope that one of my favorite mountains passes the grade. You can keep a track of the survey work by visiting the GandJSurvey channel on YouTube. If you fancy having a go at climbing all 14 peaks the Snowdonia Society have put a great website…
