diffwys ( left ) and Craig Aderyn from the start at Banc y Fran


The ascent ahead along Braich


Y Llethr & Rhinog Fawr lie to the north


On the ascent of diffwys looking along Hirgwm to the Afon Mawddach


Close up of Dolgellau , Waun Oer sits at the back


Y Figra with Craig-Y-Llyn in the background


On diffwys summit now looking east to Y Garn


And the southern view to Cadair Idris


Close up of the impressive frontage of Cadair Idris


Down below is the Afon Cwm-llechen valley


Llyn Dulyn & Crib-y-rhiw leading onto Y Llethr


In the distance is Arenig Fawr


The stone wall provides a perfect windbreak for my pitch tonight


The shadows are getting longer as the sun gets lower & lower


Mr & Mrs inquisitive appear at the trig point to check out the weirdo who's taken residence on their patch


The Afon Mawddach Estuary


The descent route I'll be taking tomorrow to Craig-y-Grut


The setting sun over the Llyn Peninsula


A sillouette of the Northern Snowdonia mountains , r-l Snowdon , Moel Eilio , Moel Hebog & the Nantle ridge


A patch of sunshine during what has become a mainly cloudy morning


The Llyn Bodlyn Reservoir & Moelfre


Heading across to Craig-y-Grut


In the distance the Rivals catch some sunshine on the Llyn Peninsula


I assume this is flock number 8


The stone wall leads the way to Craig-y-Grut


Final shot across to Cadair Idris
