Gail, Godfrey, Tim and I had an eventful weekend at Glan Dena with Storms Austen and Boelo derailing our original plans. Ascending the miners track to the E of Tryfan, hail and very strong winds put paid to going beyond the col to Y Foel Goch. Instead, we returned via Bwlch Tryfan to Idwal Cottage in increasingly challenging conditions. Very strong gusts were a nightmare as was the struggle to cross Nant Bochlwyd on the descent which was increasing in spate. So much water! An 'on the edge' day, when it was good to know we all had each other's backs. The photos don't do it justice.
