The moat and bridge
A bit swampy
Clearing skies
Exit pathway
Narrow road to our trailhead
Trailhead for our Pen Y Gadair Fawr hike
Nice bridge, but not our trail
Into the ferns!
Streams everywhere
Sheep on the slopes
Upwards
Climbing above the valley
Suspicious sheep
A staredown
Heather scattered in the bogs
Dark clouds approaching
Hail, rain, and wind at the peak
Absorbing the Welsh weather
Pelting rain for the moment
A pause
Starting to clear up again
First peek at the Grwyne Fawr Reservoir
Small and soft
Sheep bones
Wool bits
Little shed upstream
Crossing the dam
Grwyne Fawr Reservoir
Looking down down down
Streams in the other valley
Livestock pens
Sunny again
More stone walls
Perched on the fence
Pausing at Cadair Viewpoint
