Westerly 40 to 50mph with gusts up to 70-80Mph on the higher peaks. Parked at Llyn Ogwen set off towards Cwm Idwal hand railing the lake. Deciding the winds would be too strong on the surrounding peaks we decided to do the low level route that runs around the lake. returning back to Llyn Ogwen.

Area : Glyderau
