Old family picture from the late 1950s but I don't know the route. Definitely N Wales - possible E face of Tryfan. Can anyone confirm the route?

Golly, how did I serve my apprenticeship with this type of belaying without realising it was all about skipping?!

ps, Ivanator, I think your caption for this photo is the best I've ever seen on UKC!
