Having spent yesterday watching the wind creating phenomenal spray almost to the top of the lighthouse - and many thanks for your kind responses to that - then to wake up to a calm day - I was left wondering - where did Storm Arwen go?
Headed out from the YHA Snowden Llanberis on an easy track with the Llanberis Pass and Snowden Rail track adjacent to our left - no trains running through the winter apparently - then past Foel Gron and Foel Goch - overcast but with clear views, and for just a short time shafts of sunlight breaking through the clouds - my blip opportunity.
Different story at the summit 726m - Arwen reappeared - along with biting sleety rain and icy ground - cloud descended and views obliterated - fortunately relatively good paths and a steady incline down. Swift progress made - encouraged by the persistent rain. Good to get that mountain walk in and not one I’ve done before. Back for 2pm for more tea and cake!
Hope your weekend has been a good one
