Last year, it was my inability to locate suitable 5v giant battery's for my old Petzl head torch that prevented me from going up Snowdon.
What I can remember is that the weather was mild and ideal for a walk up the big hill, but a friend had borrowed my Petzl Tikka and had yet to return it, so I was torch less.
Ive now got three Petzl head torches, a Tikkina, a Tikka and that vintage halogen version, that is now almost useless.
If the winds subside, the weather remains mild, then I will join at least twenty to thirty regulars upstairs for the New Year.
Anyone interested.
