Y Garn and Foel Goch

Today's images are of Y Garn, which at 947m is the third highest of the Glyderau, also showing in the first and third images is  Foel Goch which reaches a height of 831m.  These were taken facing west from the slopes of Tryfan on the walk up to Llyn Idwal.  I didn't take the normal path up but having stopped to take the pictures of the waterfall in yesterdays blog I forged my own path over the boggy ground following the stream part way and then heading over a low crest to reach the view in the last of the pictures above.

Tomorrow I will post some more pictures from further along the way, but lets not get ahead of ourselves and just pause to appreciate the view.  

I think later on in the season I will head up here again when there is snow on the ground, I will expect some really stunning images then

Misty Mountain Stream

So today there is a watery theme to the photos I have chosen.  The last picture is of Llyn Ogwen, the others are of streams that feed into the lake from the slopes of Tryfan and the Glyderau. From my vantage point overlooking the lake it was cold and very breezy but on the far side in the morning sun it looks a few degrees warmer. However cold I felt though, I think it was worth it to get these shots.
