Pen-Y-Pass

I was in Wales, and to discover Snowdonia, I decided to do the Miner's trail hike from Pen-Y-Pass (360m elevation~1180ft) to the Snowdon Summit (1085m~560ft).

 

The weather was foggy and windy as I started the hike. But you know, you can make the ascent, then be higher than the fog while you arrive at the summit, and get a nice foggy view to take pictures of (which happened to me several times in San Francisco).

 

After 1 hour walking, the fog was so thick that there was no visibility above 10 meters.

This is why I lost the trail several times, and was completely soaked (due to the severe humidity in that fog).

 

Anyway, I did it to the summit where it was very windy...And no visibility at all due to THE FOG! So I did not wait until the golden hour to take photos, I went back to Pen-Y-Pass and I took this picture..
