Nor Nor Gully Scramble & The "Evil Third Rise"

Join me as I tackle the Nor Nor Gully Scramble on Tryfan. A few years ago I published a video of the adjacent but easier Nor Nor Groove route, now I'm back for more.

This gully has three rises and the last one is known as the "Evil Third Rise".

In Steve Ashton's Scrambles in Snowdonia book, this scramble is rated as a 2+ and has a fun rating of 1 star out of 3. That sounds about right to me, I'm glad I tried this scramble but it's not the finest so I doubt I'll be back doing it again anytime soon.

Nor Nor Gully is sometimes used as a descent route by those lost on the North Ridge scramble, as you'll see from my footage, only experienced roped parties should descend this line as it's steep in places and often wet.
