Ledge Route, Ben Nevis POV (Summer) 

Thanks, yeah it's a great scramble all year round

Glad you enjoyed it James. All the best when heading up on Wednesday.

Thanks, it's a great route summer & winter.

Thanks Abdus, I've not done these routes so not sure. Hardest part in all honesty is getting to the start of Ledge Route, the actual route is very easy, just high and a bit exposed.

@@DamonRitchie thank you very much you've just boosted my confidence. Will give you an update if we do it.

@@abuabidyusuf No problem, very easy route when you're on it

Great introductory route to the north face Kevin, all the best when coming to do it

It's a easy mountain maby not for city peopel but a old man could climb the ben

Stephen Green Thanks Stephen. I use a GoPro 3 and it's either on my helmet or attached to a chest harness.

Cheers Austin. Yeah I went up to half way Lochain then dropped down following the track to CIC. I usually always do any TNF routes by starting at TNF car park at Torlundy, far easier and less exhausting. Oh and far quiter!😊

Yeah Bob, far easier.

Ta, it's an OMM jacket

Thanks Pedro. Unfortunately Mr. Chips passed away at the start of the year.

Sorry to hear that I liked your video's with Mr Chips. Quite a mountaineer he was.

+Pedro Von Worzelburger Thanks, he had a great life wandering with me over the mountains.

Path from Youth Hostel up to halfway Lochan, continue past then right fork path then descends diagonally to the CIC hut

Cheers Peter, yeah it's the easiest way in / route on TNF. Still an easy (ish) winter route, just the approach to it that can be dodgy in winter.

I would say only slightly harder due to one narrow section that can be avoided. Probably an all round shorter day out.

@@DamonRitchie thanks did you enjoy this route more than cmd arete?

@@bilaltahir9978 I would say I've always enjoyed the CMD Arete

I'd say Arete is more exposed tbh, probably more exposure on Ledge Route leading up to the actual start with falling rocks etc

Have you seen what it's like in winter?

Aayush Ganesh I've never done Crib Goch

Damon Ritchie fair enough. Do reply if and when you do😊

I'd say Crib Goch is a bit harder because there are sections of just bare, rounded rock, though not as steep or as exposed as the ledge. Though as Damon kept pointing out you can avoid most of the edge. I've only done the Ledge in winter, would have liked to see getting to the start, there are a couple of options in winter to get out of No 5 gulley.

Crib Goch is way more open to the weather than this route. If you have done the Crib, then this should not be a problem for you.
