Mymbyr bouldering

We stayed in Conwy after the race, and went for a family bouldering outing today. The conditions could hardly have been less suitable, so it was perforce rather brief! We stopped at Idwal Cottage - all very damp, cold and greasy - so I just did the jamming crack (4) and scoop (10) before driving round to the RAC boulders in Mymbyr. This was a little more amenable, although still very greasy and cold, water in all the pockets. I did 10,11,12 on the slab, with M following 10, and E trying! Also did 1 and 6 (the good steep fin) on the central boulder, plus the easy Backside Arete. Afterwards, we had a walk and picnic at Capel Garmon, which was even colder: although it was satisfying to watch heavy rain sweep in over Ogwen as we lunched.
