Paver Smith directors Martyn Best and Dougal Paver scaled a blizzard-lashed Snowdon for their first trek of the year.
The hike was the first of a dozen training trips in advance of this summer's third bi-annual Spanish Trek in aid of Claire House Children's Hospice.
Accompanying the pair were Neal Maxwell of Aztec Interiors and Everest veteran and former mountain rescue volunteer Fraser Mackay.
