After re-arranging the furniture, the snow forecast will be back from next Thursday.

There was a lot of snow around this weekend, but not a patch on what fell over the border. Bimbling up Moel Eilio yeterday found the snow patchy and rather disappointing. At the very least though, lower ranges like Hebog and Nantlle have a winter coat this weekend.

Not really a lot on top...

Further up, on the Carneddau, Glyderau and Yr Wyddfa, there's been snow now for over a week and patchy ice and snow on the path from well before that.

Judging by the weather due for the week, next weekend's looking like a good day for snow worshippers. Lets hope for the perfect combination of a decent snowfall during the week and some cold sunshine for the weekend. Unfortunately, long term forecasts seem to suggest that a melt is most likely for the end of the week.

Some pics only of the walk on Friday. Did the walk here, and the light was kind for a few of these shots!

There''s a few updates in the pipeline, but it''s been a busy month. Was up on "The Ben" last week, wild camping this weekend, and then i''ve got some other things to do. The CMD route will be on here soon, along with another 3 new routes on Walk Eryri that are already written but I need time to publish. I would do so tonight, but going wild camping on Yr Wyddfa tomorrow! Here''s some pics from my recent trip to Scotland and some evening walks i''ve done.
