Snowdonia, Wales

These pictures were taken on an opportunistic visit to Snowdon in late February 2004 when a plentiful covering of snow and ice, together with superb weather gave an unbeatable day out. We started from Llanberis Pass and went up into Cwn Glas to climb Sargeant's Gully. From the top of the route, we traversed round to Bwlch Coch for a traverse of Crib Goch, descending the North Ridge.
