More Snow than expected!

by daveroberts Email

I know I said there might be a bit of snow on top, and it might be more of an annoyance than anything else, but look at the pictures below.

Not a lot to be seen today.

This was taken yesterday during a little bimble up the North Carneddau. I thought the shelter was at first, completely snowed in as the mist was so thick. I shan't admit to having arrived at Foel Grach, when I was meant to be heading in the opposite direction towards Foel Fras. In my defence, I thought i was following the standing stones that mark the path. This they certainly do, but of course, in both directions.

I don't think there's a single time in mist where I haven't been 100% certain of the route off Garnedd Uchaf. I'll definitely remember that I'll need to follow a bearing of 40 degrees to get to Fras from now on!

Lost Specs Found

I found a pair of glasses on Bera Mawr yesterday.

Email me with a description and I'll post em.

If you find anything in the Snowdonia hills, I'm more than happy to put a post on here to reunite people with their possessions.
