Mount Snowdon - July 2009
Some piccies & a movie from our camping trip to Llanberis at the foot of Mount Snowdon (Wales).
We had a few days camping at the Mountain Farm Campsite in Llanberis. The campsite was rather basic, but served its purpose. The only time we had a clear view of the summit of Snowdon was the afternoon we arrived, the rest of the time it was shrouded in cloud.
We walked up mid week & were surprised at just how many people there were doing the same, it must get extremely busy at weekends. We were also surprised at just how many people were ill equipped for the conditions that lay ahead of them.
