Welsh Mountains

Y Garn - 30/10/09

Not planned, we stopped at the Ranger's station at Cwn Idwal and head for Llyn Idwal. Following the path to the Devil's Kitchen we aim for Y Garn, however whilst having lunch at Llyn y Cwn the weather closes in and we decide to head back down.

Snowdon - 28/10/09

First ascent of Snowdon, and interesting mountain! We parked at Pen-y-Pass and followed the Miners’ Track past Llyn Llydaw, where ledged has it King Arthur disappeared under the cloud cover slopes of Crib Goch. On to Glaslyh the home of the monster dragged here from Betws-y-Coed.
This is where the climbing starts, joining the Pyg Track and onto to the summit ridge. Enveloped in cloud, we were unable to see either the summit or the ridge! We knew we were close when the eerie sound of a steam train could be heard in the clouds.
