Route taken: PyG path
Next report: Winter 2025-26

End of Season 25-4-2025

Conditions
No snow or ice was seen on the mountain during today's observations.

A cloudy but dry day for most of the morning, with a light breeze. Brighter at times.

Essential equipment
Seasonally appropriate walking gear, including lighting (such as a headtorch or two).

Additional Information
On the Friday of the last report of the season the forecast suggests that the temperature on the summit will be above freezing throughout the forecast period (up to Friday the 2nd of May), and that snow or ice is not likely in the near future.

As spring draws towards summer wintry conditions will become less and less likely, but low temperatures are still possible, continuing to feel cold at times especially in strong winds, or when getting wet in the rain. If you want to prepare to stay safe on the mountain it is still worth having a look at the latest forecasts for the summit of Yr Wyddfa, and the Eryri mountain area forecast.

Wishing everyone a lovely long lazy hazy summer full of mountains, and the odd adventure, and I hope to see you again next winter!
