Early summer is the time to head over to the shady side of the Llanberis Pass. The dry spring weather has left the normally damp crags seepage free. Although the central Nose on Dinas Mot attracts the most traffic, the best rock (lovely, lovely dolerite!) and some of the best routes can be found on the wings and on the Plexus Buttress.
Plexus is a brilliant route – technically absorbing, exciting and blessed with some fantastically airy positions. An evening ascent in the glorious vivid light will live on in your memory for years to come.
