Snowdon Inversion

DATE : 15th April 2007




Heading towards Gallt y Wenallt


Y Lliwedd from Gallt y Wenallt with the higher summits of Snowdon , Garnedd Ugain & Crib Goch in the background


The steep north eastern slopes of Y Lliwedd


Llyn Llydaw with Crib Goch behind


The route from Y Lliwedd to the summit of Snowdon in the distance


Full length view of Llyn Llydaw


The rebuilding work on the new cafe on Snowdon summit has begun again recently


Some of the foundations for the new cafe are already in place


And this is what it will eventually look like apparently


A rare sight indeed , a clear sunny sunday afternoon and the summit is deserted ( apart from the bird of course )


Snowdon summit


Low cloud moves in off the Irish sea


A batch of cloud moves over Bwlch Ciliau


More cloud moves in from the west


Cloud accumulates by Garnedd Ugain


View towards Yr Aran


Conditions are clearer towards Glaslyn & Llyn Llydaw


The route back along the zig zags to the Pyg Track


Looking towards the high western cliffs of Yr Wyddfa


Low cloud moves in from the Nantgwynant Valley


The causeway carrying the Miners Track over Llyn Llydaw


View towards Y Lliwedd


Cloud engulfs Pen-y-Pass at the top of the Llanberis Pass


And pours over Cwm Dyli


View towards Glyder Fawr


Crib Goch with Snowdon & Y Lliwedd in the background


Llyn Llydaw disappears from view


Moel Siabod is just in view


Cloud is now pouring thick & fast down the Llanberis Pass


Heading back to Pen-y-Pass which is underneath that lot somewhere
