The Strength of the Mountain – A reminder to never give up

The mountains stand so strong and proud,

With their rocky faces reaching for the sky.

They are a symbol of strength and resilience,

Of never giving up in the face of adversity.

 

The mountains have seen so much in their time,

From wars and battles to the ebb and flow of time.

They are a reminder that no matter what comes,

We can always stand tall and face it head-on.

Taken from a series on how to navigate, this compass tip can save you in low visibility navigation. Measuring slope aspect (which way a slope faces) is sometime all you have got to use. On a hill side, at nigh or in fog, it's easy to get lost and come down on the wrong side of the hill. By measuring slope aspect you can easily find out which way the slope is facing and which way you need to go. ⏱️⏱️TIMECODES⏱️⏱️ 00:00 Intro 00:28 Measuring the slope aspect 00:58 Map and compass navigation My kit list - not all taken on this trip.

Filmed in 2019, while hiking in Snowdonia National Park I went for a scrambling ascent of the North Ridge of Tryfan. Tryfan is in North Wales and stands at 918m (3,010 ft) and is a long narrow and rocky mountain. The east face and Milestone Buttress are popular with rock climbers but today I followed the north ridge, taking the more challenging route to the summit, where Adam and Eve stand. Two rocky pinnacles that stand watch over the Ogwen valley.

Today we're doing a tree dismantle of a diseased Horse Chestnut. This involves climbing and dismantling the tree branch by branch. With lots of obstacles underneath, this one was fun to do as I love a challenge.
