Slate first came into my life in a big way in Caithness when I was a boy! The fields of our farm were divided with slate flags, huge flat rectangular flag stones often four by five feet square, set on edge in the ground. But there were also dry-stone walls made of slate too which were called dykes, just like these that go down the 'zig zags' to the lake side at Dinorwic quarry. Occasionally on the farm I had to re-build or repair the walls so I know just how hard and time consuming the job is. And that experience leaves me utterly flabbergasted when I see the volume of manual building and labour that obviously went on in this corner of Wales. Like most of the quarry buildings, inclines, walls and buttresses it is all falling down and it saddens me each time I visit to see another bit lost, because it will never be the same again.
But I love this walk through the zig zags where the steep path looks out on the lakes and the mountains, and the skies of Snowdonia.
One of many Dykes radiating out from the East Spanish Peak. This dyke is much larger than it looks, unfortunately I have nothing nearby to show its scale. This may be the last of my Spanish Peaks foothills series. There is still so much more to photograph around the mountains, but I may wait until we get a fresh snow fall.

When I got back to the car this afternoon Sally had been bathing in the muddy dyke
She shook herself dry on my hand, I can still smell the dyke water after washing :-)
