Its been warm, but next week due to get very cold

Its getting closer! Forecast temperatures in the Welsh mountains for the coming week are plummeting. A few cm's of snow predicted here & there. So with a bit of luck, there may be some winter fun to be had soon.

I've been spending a fair bit of time hiking & biking over the last month in an effort to get fit ready for the winter. I went for a blast up Snowdon via the Pyg track on Thursday, with a hop, skip & a jump (literally) back over Garnedd Ugain & Crib Goch. It was a fairly warm day, with beautiful winter light (below the cloud line anyway!)
