This week I am looking back at a production walk I have presented before, which means you may recognise the photos I post this week. I’m not simply reusing the posts I wrote back then, but using new words with the photos to describe my memories of the walk.
This Winter we have had no snow to speak of at all – the five minute dusting I ran into on top of Graig Fawr on last weeks walk was the sum total of the snow we have had in our immediate vicinity this year. So before we fully engage with Spring and while the temperatures are still low, I thought it would be timely to take a look at what I think of as a proper winter walk.
Lliw Lower Reservoir is a popular place for people visit for a few different walks, all of which, naturally, circumnavigate either the lower reservoir or extend to the upper reservoir. My walk this week took me round the lower one where the footpath is tarmac on the eastern side and then a muddy narrow track back down the western side. However, none of those surfaces can be seen on this walk as the snow and ice were lying thick from start to finish.
Wondrous – makes me shiver even while it’s so hot here. Looks like the frost has been sprayed on
Thanks Chas. I think whatever the weather, I will be posting about Spring next week 🙂
Enjoy that first crack of spring – it’s a great thing to see in the North. We seem to slide between seasons here – not so much of a mark in between.
Well, I could certainly cope with a little more sunshine. We celebrate here these days when there is just a little pocket of blue sky lol
Lovely!
