Super set of photos, very enjoyable. I’ve not been up Snowdon since the caff was finished, but I get much pleasure from the knowledge that the Granite facing is from Welsh Slate’s Manod quarry…although they call it Cwt-y-Bugail, for some wierd reason.

Spectacular photos, Graham! (As usual) What a wonderful hike that must be.

Thanks! You have to get there early in the morning in the summer to beat the crowds at the summit though 😉 By the way, the Olympic torch paid a visit there yesterday: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18235115

Thanks for the link. In English there is a special (but not well known) name for these markers: toposcope or topograph.
