Samantha Kimber walked up on August 6th, 2016 [from/via/route] Ardwall path route [with] Jono, Ellie, Tabby, Jasper [weather] Sunny & bright until about 3/4 way up as there was a lot of low cloud. Gale force winds near the summit & no visibility so we didn't hang around! - A great achievement by the children (8, 7 & 4 years old) as it was quite a slog through the heather & peat bogs. There was a party of around 40 people doing their annual memorial walk to the summit too so nice to see lots of other people on our ascent.

Patrick Rogozinski and Wendy Sockett have both walked, climbed & bagged Criffel.
