Yr Aran from the bank of Llyn Gwynant
Heading up the Watkin Path
The waterfalls of the Afon Cwm Llan
The Watkin Path follows the course of the Afon Cwm Llan , high above is Y Lliwedd
Leaving the Watkin path the route heads up towards Yr Aran above
View across Cwm Llan to the summit of Snowdon
And to the right is the huge mass of Y Lliwedd
Moments later clouds sweep in to smother the summits
Panning right reveals the route of ascent up Cwm Llan with Llyn Gwynant down below
Close up of Moel Siabod also being mugged by a patch of cloud
Mynydd Mawr & the Nantle Ridge from the summit of Yr Aran
View along Nant y Betws to Mynydd Mawr , Llyn Cwellyn and Moel Eilio
Close up of Moel Eilio , Foel Gron & Foel Goch
The village of Rhyd-Ddu with Mynydd Mawr & Llyn Cwellyn in the background
The magnificent Nantle ridge with Llyn y Gader at it's foot
Yr Arans close neighbour Craig Wen with Moel Hebog behind
The clouds clear momentarily to reveal Snowdon's summit & the ridge to Y Lliwedd
While on the summit a helicopter has swooped by and dropped a flare
The helicopter then attempts to land on the summit nearly blowing me off the ridge in the process , cheers !
After hovering over the summit a while the helicopter moves away , Cnicht & the Moelwyns provide the backdrop
Snowdon summit again during a clear spell
Looking over the pools at Bwlch-Cwm Llan
View back up Yr Aran
Allt Maenderyn with the ridge of Clogwyn Du leading to Snowdon summit
Back on the Watkin path now at Cwm Llan
Close up of a ruined stone building with the spectacular falls of Llyn Cwm Llan behind
Cwm Llan , Y Lliwedd & Snowdon from Nantgwynant
Yr Aran from Rhyd-Ddu
