Tenth visit. Celebratory first after finishing Welsh Marilyns on 21st June 2022. First time was first Welsh Marilyn three weeks after nine weeks in Warwick hospital having remarkably survived 12 bore shotgun blast, 300 pellets in the belly middle of the night from nine feet across the landing 28/2/70. Thank you brilliant surgeons in Warwick. Topograph topped round trig pillar... Foul clagged in, howling a gale... Shared with two random guys from Manchester. Wish I'd left an hour earlier might've been less hostile.

The third time I've visited the summit, this time via the train; previous climbs in the 1980s are unrecorded. The train and paths were very busy, this being a Saturday with good weather between periods of wind and rain. There was not enough time to queue for a selfie at the pillar but I managed a quick close-up of the flush bracket followed by a selfie just below.

During round of Snowdon horse shoe. Sunny calm and dry but made a pigs ear of Crib Goch, so running late. Snowdon sitting proud of a vast sea of low lying white cloud stretching south to horizon, felt like the view from an aeroplane. Continued, descending Watkin path into cloud layer, only briefly re-emerging on summit tip of Y Lliwedd. Dark by Pen-y-pass.

Hiked up on a glorious day from our campsite in Llanberis linking on to the Ranger Path and returned via the Llanberis Path. We didn't meet a sole for nearly two hours coming up the valley beside Foel Goch. Fabulous views today and not too busy at the summit at 11am.

I made the pilgrimage with friends from a walking group - Mountain a Month. We made the ascent via the Watkin Path and descended via the Cambrian Way passing over the ridges of Bwlch Main & Clogwyn Du. It was a clear day with amazing views at all points of the hike including those from the summit. Thankfully with the train not yet running, the queues for the summit were quite short. The circular pillar is in great condition and retains the original spider framed by a decorative brass disc that helps to identify the many surrounding peaks & ridges.

After many a years gap, a return to Yr Wyddfa. Gulls and ravens on clean up patrol. A glorious day and actually not too busy, all be it that despite its glorious mass and shape its a difficult one to feel a sense of mountain wilderness at times. On to its far more airy and wild neighbour afterwards. Which means the highest and third highest trigs I've recorded are on this walk. Up on the PyG back on the more wild and beautiful Miners Track, the last of the light grabbing Moel Siabod.

Been up here about a dozen times on diffrent routes today used the llanberis path very disappointed with the condition on the lower path and the rubbish alongside. Clear two thirds of the way up then whiteout all the way to the summit  -15 windchill, no views and a que at the top I score this 8 normally as there is a good view on a clear day the trig is maintained and some of the routes are quieter .

Cracking day doing Yr Aran and Snowdon via the Watkin path. Weather was bad for August with cloud for most of the day. Started late (11am) to wait for the worst to pass. After summiting Yr Aran, I re-joined the Watkin and it was tough going up the last part of Snowdon in thick fog. Wind chill felt like minus 1 at the top just after 5pm. Cafe closed. Back down Watkin and in car just after 7.30.

Parked in the Llanberis Car Park, just off the A4086. Started off in the dark at 3.30am in order to beat the herd and the high temperatures forecast for later in the day. Took the Llanberis Path. Its 4.5 miles up to the summit, and it took me 2.5 hours, reaching the summit at 6am. Despite that, still came across around 20 people, either on the route or at the summit. Most had camped out for the night. Some people were lost, as they had taken no navigation with them. Small queue at the summit to photograph the pillar, with some queue jumping by certain individuals. I just waited my turn and ignored it, as it was no more than what I expected before I set out. Very nice scenery, but it has been somewhat ruined by having been reduced to a tourist trap. No more than a tick boxing exercise for me, on what is likely to be my one and only visit.

I have visited Snowdon +/- 12 times but never between 9 - 5. A different world with people. Came over from Crib Goch via "Judy Driscoll". Paddy memories. Dedicated to the "park and ride" system which is in place from Nant Peris/Llanberis.

Up from Rhyd Ddu, above the clouds at the top, stunning views. Saw brockenspectre on the clouds below at one point. Not too busy, although the usual crowds make the toposcope unusable! A great place, full of history also, burial place of the giant Rhita, hence "Gwyddfa Rhita". Apparently the highest point of natural rock is around 1m below the trig platform.

Great climb up 4th time up the Pyg track. Quite quiet as England still in lock down. Super views always a great day up here! Trig as expected well maintained, with plate and brass directional disc on top. Summit a little busier but no ques as published in previous months. Seagulls looking for a feeding as we sat down for lunch!

Reached the Snowdon summit after a long climb up the Watkins Path. Beautiful clear day with fantastic views. Very crowded (so an 8) though and had to queue to reach the trig point.

Trekked up via Miners track, it wasn't too busy, just a few waves/ groups of people ahead/ behind. On the way up the weather was absolutely glorious, we completely lucked out with this, swapping our waterproof jackets for light hoodies, then discarding both into our backpacks! Eventually both came back out as the summit drew closer as the wind gradually picked up. We did queue up to stand at the trig point itself, but thankfully it wasnt too long, and everyone was polite and stuck to the unofficial queue system. It was well worth the aching thighs on the way up!

Revisit while doing the Snowdon Horseshow with Mayes. Didn't actually touch the trig on this occasion as there was a queue of 70+ people waiting for their photo op. Extraordinary. Low cloud, fourth time of asking and I still haven't seen the views from Snowdon. Marked down for the crowds.

Trig Point measured as N53° 04.109 W004° 04.566 at 1085M using a Garmin Montana 650 GPSr. Needed to undertake a few substantial walks to update my MLTB Qualification log, so decided to have a few days in Snowdonia. Walked up from Pen-y-pass via the Pyg Track and returned on the Miners Track, a thoroughly enjoyable clamber in an area I have visited many times over more years than I care to remember! Weather, as usual for Snowdon, was variable particularly at the summit. Whilst up here, it's a good opportunity to bag an old Virtual geocache ("Where is Snowdon Summit???" - GC5F13) and a stage of the GAGB YOSM Adventure Lab. Previously logged on 14th September 1997 ... a nice Wedding Anniversary walk!

Ascent via Pyg Track with Mary in biblical conditions. There was more water in the air than there was air in the air, waterfalls everywhere. Gale force winds. Strava flyby shows everyone turning back short of the summit ridge. Scored 10 for our absolute badassness. Aborted half horseshoe (Crib Goch already written off) in favour of descent via Miners Track.

Back up Snowdon as part of the national three peaks. After disappointment on getting to Scafell on time thanks to a rather nasty accident ahead of us on a small Scottish road (which took four helicopters and closed the road for 2 hours) it was more like 2 and 3/4 peaks (hired drivers need statutory breaks which you have to be back for). But the view of Snowdon in the sunrise brightened our spirits and we had a lovely last walk of the trip. Up Pyg and down Miners which I haven't been on for years and was nice for a re-visit. Not a drop of rain all weekend!

Snowdon via Crib Goch and Crib y Ddsgl for the first time. Excellent route with cracking views. Clear for Crib Goch but cloud rolled in with rain and wind by the time we got to Snowdon with no view from the summit. Lots of people even this early. Descent via Pyg Track and then drove south to do Cadair Idris in the afternoon.

Never done this mountain before in summer always the winter, and the number of people today out walking was phenomenal.The conditions were about as good as you could get walked up the pyg track helped an old guy walking up on his own who had fallen and i was concerned for his safety he was 84! and would not stop or take a drink.Anyway i stayed behind him and caught him a few times when he stumbled many bad accidents have occurred here in the past so i was glad when Bob made the summit.The top was even more packed than i had ever seen it before and had to queue to touch the trig.Another bonus for me was to see the train running for the first time and to be able to go in the cafe where i had a cold beer.You can easily see why snowdon is the most popular accessible mountain in the country.

We had this route planned. Walk up The Rangers path that starts off from the station car park. Somehow we ended up at Rhyd Ddu car park, also at a station. All was well with amazing views until we got to the ridge not far from the summit. 1000 ft drop on both sides! It was a good job that it was up in the clouds and we couldn't see down. This is the SCARIEST path I have ever been on!! Very busy and no views at the pillar.

Although the weather today turned out to be rather wet, at least it wasn't too cold, well, not until that is, the water got the better of my not-so-water-proof waterproofs, which also resulted in my wallet and contents becoming soaking wet and my iPhone packing in, still, the walk up the mountain wasn't too bad, I've done it in much harsher conditions before. After making my way down from trig point Garnedd Ugain, I then made my way to Yr Wyddfa, where oddly, the summit train passed carrying just gas cylinders!

Visited Snowdon summit 3-4 times over time but as only recently started logging trig visits on this site, am now logging my last visit. Cannot remember which year but definitely in June and when some friends were taking part in the Three Peak Challenge, this being their final peak. Typical mountain weather-pleasant when we left the car but gale force winds and freezing by the trig point [to which I was hanging on to with gritted teeth, hence awful photo!]. It snowed/hailed on our way down back to the car which was still in sunshine! From memory the trig is in good condition and views superb [although not on this visit!]; wonderful place to be whatever the weather!

We've never encountered so many obnoxious people in one place before. A girl told me to "hurry up" as she wanted to climb up on to the "thing" to have here photo taken. I of course took my time.

What a day to pick to tackle Snowdon… It was wet, blowing half a gale and bitterly cold at the summit. Very few people up here this morning and only one, a German tourist, outside the cafeteria. He kindly took the photo of me at the pillar. Visibility just a few feet. The low marks out of 10 reflect the conditions on the day.

I'll give it a 10 for its significance and views and hill climbing experience but would only give the actual trig visit a 1 as it involves a lot of jostling to get up the steps and back down on a busy day. I thought summit rage was going to break out at one time. Trying to secure my photo of the flush bracket took a bit of time.

I came up on the Watkin Path, with a little detour to take in Y Lliwedd first. The last 300 metres of ascent was through dense cloud. Even still, the summit was as busy as ever and it was a struggle to get a picture of the flush bracket. I don't know if I saw BLACKCATWHITEFEET when I was up there, but I did see a poor bedraggled girl dressed up as a banana. I headed down on the Llanberis path, calling by Garnedd Ugain trig pillar along the way.

Above date is most recent of twenty visits, first in 1975. Round, stone built topograph. Pillar and platform rebuilt in 2000 with view indicator set into top. There was a small cairn recorded on the top in 1805 and the large cairn, on which stands the trig point, was first constructed in 1827 by the OS surveyors. New cafe is an improvement on the former one though it was too cloudy to see it, or anything else, properly today.

I can't say the trig condition is good because there isn't a trig, just a topograph with the flush bracket mounted on it. A beautiful day, we came up early(ish) via the Pyg track and back via the Miners' track. 10 for the view, 1 for the lack of peace, train and shop.

Superb round stone-built trig with brass spider with indented lettering in centre of view-indicator, an impressive bit of wokmanship. Would easily earn 10/10 if not for that railway monstrosity,although the new building better visually than the old one. Previously visited this Furth of Scotland Munro 08/05/87 by way of Crib-goch and Crib-y-ddysgl which I repeated today with the inclusion this time of Craig Fach to complete the Welsh Sims ( Sixhundred Metre Summits ).

Usual lack of view not least for the numbers of flip-flopped visitors to the summit. 2nd ascent in 12 months - a lot warmer this time - but still cold and drizzly on an otherwise warm sunny day elsewhere. Going well descent via Rhyd Ddu path. Year's challenge in aid of Prostate Cancer Charity is going well with three good high trigs in two days.

WOW, what a trig. Weather not brilliant, cloudy base occurred just before going under second rail bridge, although the day before there were 70mph gusts so we were lucky. 3 hour walk up the Llanberis path, started out at 8.15am to avoid the tourists, and boy are they ill prepared tourists, this is a MOUNTAIN!!!! The whole experience makes this a 10/10 for us. Thank you to all that helped us prepare for this trip, we really did feel on top of the world together, and make this our 50th trig.

Four ascents in 3 days - all by different routes. Rhyd-Ddu (hated the narrow ridge), Pyg, Snowdon Ranger (easiest) and lastly Watkins (best route). First 3 times thick cloud at top but fourth time lucky - brilliant sunshine with a sea of cloud a few hundred feet below which gradually cleared. New cafe quite nice. Unbelievably crowded - I had to queue behind about 10 others to get to the topograph.

Went from Llanberis as part of DoE Gold exped.. If you want to avoid the ill prepared tourists on the Llanberis track, you will have to be early. I have heard stories of people queing to get up before! Unfortunately, the weather was not as good as many other photo's show and the mist was so poor you could hardly see down the steps to just below the trig. Couldn't see the cafe very well either, but from what I saw (and heard) it was very nice. After Snowdon, we continued down the pyg track to Pen-y-pass. Nice climb but nicer weather could have made it a lot better!

Round stone pillar more a tourist attraction than a trig point. Metal plug [indented letters] at centre of elaborate view finder. Public. Access Land. Snowdonia National Park. New summit complex not quite open. New steps provide easier & safer access to pillar, but have an 'approach to the shrine' feel. Still, highest place in the British Isles outside Scotland, with a feeling of immense loftiness. As an alternative to the usual routes, try an ascent of the south ridge from Rhyd Ddu.

Did this as part of our 3 Peaks Challenge - Scafell in March, Nevis in May, and now Snowdon! Sorry? Oh, they have to be done in the same day! I thought it was in the same year, d*mn - back to the drawing board! Oh well, at least it was a glorious day and the final day of our hols, long drive home in the evening though. We did the classic horeshoe walk up from Pen-y-Pass, over Crib Goch, Snowdon summit and return via Y Lliwed, one of the best circular walks we've done, but the weather made it. Top of Snowdon was awful, a train station, a half-built cafe and all those people! Uggh.

An early start saw us taking the Pyg path to the summit from car park at Pen-y-pass. Although only cloudy on the way up it was a howling gale by the time we reached the railway track with little visibility. Hung on for dear life to the stone built circular trig point. First five figure number I have recorded. Was this trig point a much later addition as a replacement and renumbered? I am quite new to this logging trig points and have caught the bug so I may be proved to be hopelessly wrong in my surmising.(I dont look for any information on a trig until I have loggged it myself it takes away a lot of the excitement.)

Fourth or fifth time to the top of Snowdon I think. Once on family holiday climbed with Dad in mid 70's; once on holiday with whole family going up on the train! Very vague recollection of a trip up Snowdon with the Scouts(?) late 70's; with Andy Withers and Neil Dring in autumn 1992, we did the horseshoe including Crib Gogh, a fantastic walk, but really patchy views at best throughout; most recently this trip with Andy and Simon Leyden in bloody awful weather. Perishing cold and blowing a hoolie on the summit.

Snowdon Summit Autumn 1992 - Can't be certain of the date, and this photo is a scan of a print so no digital footprint to help date it. Andy, me on the TP and Neil Dring.

Plan was to start the Pyg Track from Pen-y-Pass YHA, but ended up having to park a fair distance down from Pen-y-Gwyrd. Such is a typical summer Bank Holiday in the UK. Do remember that an early start is advised to get a parking space unless you fancy a trek up from Llanberis town centre. Overcast day, but not unpleasant for the time of year. Spider on the top of the pillar is really impressive, expect it to be one of the best in the UK. I didn't get a photo this time but like I said, there was quite a queue and not much space to get a clear shot without elbowing a fellow walker off the platform! Nice day though. We took the Miners Track back down as usual. A nice but damp day out.

Typical for us - Cloud lifted by the time we completed the South loop up to Y Lliwedd and descended back to the Miners Track. (Pre Trig days -hence no FB or GR logged)

Have walked up here many times but decided to log this particular date as it was done as the last of the 3 Peaks that we did over the period of a week. Very foggy this day. We'd wanted to do the Crib Goch ciruit but due to no view we didn't. Have done it since though and wonderful it is.

The date is very arbitrary as I've been up Snowdown sevarla times. First (and easiest) ascent was about 1972 by train - I was only 11. Since then I've been up via the Miners Track & PYG track more than once, but the most exhilarating must be via Crib Goch. On one occaision this was extended to do the horseshoe over Llewedd. Will try and come up with exact date(s)

Nicely placed, right by a railway station, and no nettles nor barbed wire. Stone built. There is some speculation that the survey pillar is the one over on Carnedd Ugain, and this one was built to answer expectations of a trig pillar.

I was part of a 1991 Events Team and we were raising sponsorship money for the Action & Research for Multiple Sclerosis charity. We were a team of ten carrying a colleague up to the summit on a kind of sedan chair (8 carrying & 2 resting in 20 minute relays). I remember we reached the summit in just under three hours, and all crowded round the trigpoint pillar in a collapsed heap. I've been up again since that memorable day, but it was never quite as good as that first time....

Logged retrospectively from 2010. Visited this trig by the Crib Goch route. Without doubt my bravest adventure in the mountains at that time. Summit very crowded with a stong smell of urine from the poor quality loos. What a travesty to inflict on the highest mountain in Wales. Still the views were fantastic and I hear the new visitor centre is much better.
