What the start looked like in October 2012 - a simple metal kissing-gate

The start today - an elaborate wall and gate - no expense spared!

Ready for off at 9 a.m.

A rather expensive new bridge over the marshy bit

We were joined by Pete, a retired Headmaster from Newcastle-under-Lyme

Looking back along our route from Y Garn

Quite misty on the top

Approaching the obelisk

Total white out above Craig Cwm Silyn

Dropping down to Bwlch Dros Bern

Looking back towards the obelisk

Low visibility on the top

At last, after Garnedd Goch, the mist cleared and we could see Llyn Cwm Dulyn. We followed the
wall down from Garnedd Goch to the "hole-in-the-wall", from where we were able to head NW
on a path that contoured the hill towards Llyn Cwm Dulyn.
