点评:Early start catching the 7:15am bus from Nant park and ride to Pen Y Pas. We chose the Pyg track route up the mountain having prepared by watching #thebaldscrambler on YouTube. We set off in driving rain. Pyg track is a challenge but a great route up. Yes it tested me and my 50 year old knees and I was glad of my walking poles. The middle section along the side of the mountain above the lakes is stunning and the sun made a brief appearance. The next climb seemed to go on for ages and by this time the wind and rain had picked up and visibility was about 15m. By far the hardest part for me was the last stretch past the post towards the submit. By then visibility was about 10m and I had no sense of how much further was left. One foot in front of the other and gritted teeth. Fatigue had set in and waterproof trousers would have been a good shout.. In someways the summit is an anti climax! There was a queue of 40 people waiting to go up. We decided to take the obligatory photo with the summit behind us and head to the cafe for a cuppa. The cafe has a motorway service station vibe and prices to match. You can’t fill up your water bottles and have to buy water if like us you’ve gone through your 2L bottle. Two of our party descended via the Miner’s track route which is steep to start with but then a beautiful walk along the lakes in glorious sunshine! Two of us got stand by tickets on the train down and took sanctuary in a pub in Llanberis. Prepare well, know your limits and enjoy the experience!
翻译:一大早就出发,赶上早上7:15从南特公园出发前往彭伊帕斯的巴士。我们选择了皮格山道(Pyg track)上山,之前看了YouTube上的#thebaldscrambler视频准备上山。我们冒着倾盆大雨出发了。皮格山道虽然具有挑战性,但却是一条很棒的登山路线。没错,它考验了我和我那50岁的老膝盖,我很庆幸自己带了登山杖。湖面上方山腰的中段路段景色优美,太阳也短暂地露了面。接下来的攀登似乎持续了很久,这时风雨也开始变大,能见度大约只有15米。对我来说,最难的部分是最后一段经过岗哨通往入口的路段。那时能见度大约只有10米,我根本不知道还有多远的路程。我一步一步地往前走,咬紧牙关。疲惫感油然而生,如果能穿上防水裤就更好了……登顶的过程在某种程度上来说,简直是虎视眈眈!排队等候登顶的人多达40人。我们决定拍一张顶峰必拍的照片,然后去咖啡馆喝杯茶。这家咖啡馆的氛围就像高速公路服务站,价格也相当实惠。如果你像我们一样,2升的瓶子已经喝完了,就得买水了。我们一行人中的两个人沿着矿工小径下山,这条路线一开始很陡峭,但之后在灿烂的阳光下,沿着湖边漫步,风景优美!我们两个人买了下山火车的候补票,在兰贝里斯的一家酒吧里休息。做好准备,了解自己的极限,享受这段经历吧!
