That fog filters great.... almost fooled me for a minute!
The Summer of 2013 in a few years it will be looked back on
as one of the Greatest Summers of All Time
Hope you enjoyed the rest of the holiday.
Three great shots!

yep - that's pretty much how I remember it
No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more

We were up there a couple of weeks ago and the weather was very variable. Bad luck, hope it hasn't put you off.
Best wishes,

I have owned a caravan at Greenacres near Porthmadog for the past 6 years with a view of Snowdon, for the last 6 years I wake up see the peak is clear and the weather fine, ring up to book the train and is always fully booked.
I just know for a fact if I ever pre booked I would end up with the same photos as your good self and it always makes me laugh at how much it costs to.

You could always walk (or is there an entry fee). Snowdon was included so no idea how much it was. ...it always makes me laugh at how much it costs to.
£27 adult, £18 children return and only 30 minutes at the summit

that's actually less than I remember it being the last time we decided "stuff that for a game of soldiers, we'll walk"
If you do ever drag the youngsters up the proper way, don't be tempted to encourage them with promisses of an ice cream in the cafe at the top. My parents tried that one and were dismayed to find that the top 100ft of the mountain was under 6 feet of snow, so the cafe was closed.

At the summit:
The train now standing...
A tourist returns from the summit, soaked to the skin.
Disappointed tourists, some with head bowed, board the down train
In all fairness this was in the middle of summer and we were just unlucky. I have seen photos in guide books etc., of some spectacular views from this area
