    New sub here, I’ve just binge watched all your videos! My husband is trying to get me into the Welsh mountains and to be honest I never really seriously considered it. But after watching your videos, especially this one, I can feel how satisfying it would actually be! I could really feel your emotion. I’m 48 and will have to get in better shape but I want to do this next year. Thank you!

    brilliant!! Awesome challenge, Grace! Well deserved amazing smile at the top of Snowdon! Many people wouldnt have ventured from the car park with viz that bad, let alone to the top of a mountain. Fair play to you, driving too! I felt every step on the way off Snowdon though as I’ve been there at the top feeling awful & then the nightmare of back down the Pyg track 😂 Mare. But YOU DID IT!

I’ll be attempting for the third time tomorrow, to jog continuously for one mile. Stem cell transplant six months ago has left me with the greatest of challenges to get fit again. Never known anything like it it in my life. Great stuff!

    Wowwww well done girl 💪💪💪 We did 2 Snowdon tracks in July and were 70 & 72. One on that hottest day of the year, phewwww and the second 3 days later in heavy rain! Were now avid mountain peak hikers and have just bought a small tent & gear to start basic camping, then onto wild camping! We used to do big tent camping when our kids were little but basic camping is so much more fun! Plus the tents are now so light! Were so excited! I have subscribed to your chanel and will catch up on your past adventures!

    Wow very beautiful mountains I'm from south Africa in the western cape mountains are alot different and also love doing some solo hikes but I like the lakes and the grass pastures here it is very bushy and Rocky and challenging but every mountain has his own individual beauty. Did a 4 peak challenge myself once heights from 1450 to 1500m and 35km later. It was grueling but very nice so happy that you made it and love I love the scenery alot. Have a nice day
