On our way to Diffwys, Snowdonia
A week staying near Betws Garmon, on the road between Beddgelert and Caernarfon. Hike 7 took us on to Diffwys from Tal-y-bont. The forecast said 10% chance of rain. We had at least 3 hours of rain in the low cloud. Consequently, it was boggy and rough and we didn't see much until the afternoon, when we were almost back at the car.

The other photos have been geo-tagged as on or around the summit. For less busy mountains, it can be a little hit and miss.
