The Miners Trail

The Miners Trail leads to the foot of Snowdon.

	Here is the mine from a distance. Lead and silver were the metals in question.		Not a lot left of the mine buildings nowadays.
There was this rather fine piece of cast iron though. There were two of these, in fact.		The track winds ever on towards the summit.
	This time of the afternoon, it was mostly people coming down.		The top seen through a long (600mm) lens.
Our wives beckon us to return.		So we turnaround...
	...and try to catch up.		we meet up in the cafe for a cuppa with Auntie Eileen.
There is a good bus service for those without wheels of their own. Come to think of it, wheels would be quite handy coming down the mountain.		another day, another fiery sunset. Still, the old adage: Red sky at night, Shepherds delight. Now where did I leave those sheep.
	John and I decide to drive up the tiny road above Rowen to cycle across the moors.		The view is stunning, as usual towards Anglesey.
Mummy horse nurturing her foal.		The view, encore.
	at least we shouldn't get lost!		The views, oh the views!
This bit is a bit steeper than it looks.		on into a lovely valley. The map tells me that there is a small lake at the end. Whether we have the time and energy to get there is another matter.
