Nothing like a cloud inversion on top of Yr Wyddfa/Snowdon when doing a sunrise hike. Makes it all worth while.

The Snowdon Horseshoe from Clogwyn Mawr. A dusting of fresh snow on Crib Goch on a cloudy day with a patch of light breaking through and illuminating the southern slopes.

Wonderful conditions in Eryri. Bitterly cold day but an enjoyable wander up Crimpiau. Shot from Clogwyn Mawr on the way back down.

Yr Wyddfa: National park to continue using Welsh name for Snowdon Snowdonia National Park Authority will continue to refer to Wales' tallest mountain as Yr Wyddfa.

Wales' tallest mountain will continue to be referred to solely by its Welsh name after the move was deemed to be a success.

The Snowdonia National Park Authority voted to use Yr Wyddfa, rather than Snowdon, and Eryri, rather than Snowdonia, in all official communication in November 2022.
