The walk today was along the Nantile Ridge in Snowdonia with the
40sWalkersNorth - 17 of us met at Talysarn and took the Minibus service that
runs along the valley and took the minibus service that runs along the
valley beneath the ridge. This enables you to leave your car at the end and
to start from the other end and walk towards your car. An excellent service
- fare £1.00 each. The weather today was not promising
with a considerable amount of rain in the previous days. We started out in
the rain and the weather slowly cleared during the day, there was low cloud
most of the day but we got occasional tantalising glimpses of the
spectacular scenery along the ridge. This is the third time I have been
along the ridge and for a clearer view check out my walk on the log on

| A pause for a rest part
of the way up Y Garn The weather at this stage was still blustery with showers |

| A bit of a scramble down one the steep bits in the misty conditions |  |

| Another of the steep bits, these can all be avoided by taking some of the other paths around the difficult parts |  |

The walk today was superb and despite the weather earlier on it brightened up later although the views from the ridge were restricted |
