An Alternative Start to Tryfan's North Ridge (Milestone Gully Scramble)

Watch me go up Milestone Gully, which is a grade 1+ scramble (some rate it 2-) leading onto the North Ridge of Tryfan in Snowdonia. After a prolonged period of dry weather, this would make for an excellent start to the North Ridge, but it is steep and slippery when wet, so is best for experienced scramblers or those that have done Tryfan's North Ridge a few times and are looking for a challenge. The route is 50m long with a height gain of 90m and at the top, one can quickly gain the North Ridge for a continuation or descent. This scramble is in "Scrambles in Snowdonia" by Steve Ashton, a book I recommend.
