With Storm Agnes fast approaching the west of the UK, I packed my rucksack and drove overnight into Snowdonia, made my up the long Watkin Path and setup camp on a ridgeline.
This is my story of a brutal solo wild camp and a delightful trek up the summit in gale-force winds.
I was so tired the following morning but it was worth the effort and I'll definitely camp in another storm again.

I have zero experience but wonder why the experience campers evacuate a failed tent rather than make do what is left?

Are you sure the winds are high as you think? Been in 90mph forecast winds in a 1 man tent, the Hillebrg Akto,, the noise the tent makes is deafening the fabric flaps like crazy.

I have no idea what the actual speeds were where I pitched the tent shielded by that ridge lower down the mountain. I only knew the forecast at the summit.

Just for the record, near the summit the Watkin Path meets the Rhyd Ddu path NOT the South Ridge.

I spent about half an hour just off the summit, watching the clouds whizzing along, it was quite a sight.

Totally irresponsible to go up Snowdon with an incoming storm, the most experienced of us can have an accident then risk the wellbeing of Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team and costs entailed. All for a video. Your a mature adult not a tiktok teenager please think before doing this type wild camp again

If you think going up Snowdon in these conditions is irresponsible and risky, please don't watch any of my other videos on this channel. I wouldn't want to you have a meltdown.

@@thebaldscrambler As it turned out Agnes wasn't much of the storm that forecasters threatened but you wasn't to know that. You certainly now sound immature

Stupid and immature as shown by your actions and response to Superfandangoo. What are you trying to prove? One channel less to browse.

@@mrdelaney4440 Pray tell me why would Snowdon have mountain rescue if it wasn't dangerous, they are called out regularly. I've been up there numerous times. Snowdon averages 8 deaths a year would you like to delete your immature statement.

Thanks, I love wild camping and used to do lots of it in the Lake District 10+ years ago. It's been great getting back into it.
