taken 18 years ago, near to Croesor, Gwynedd, Wales

Cairn on plateau below Cnicht summit
Cairn on plateau below Cnicht summit
Although it is not particularly evident on the contour maps, there is a significant sized level plateau to the southwest of the Cnicht summit. A great place to rest and possibly shelter from the wind before the final ascent. This cairn has been built in the middle of it, and the view shown is southeast off the open side of the shelf towards Moelwyn Mawr.
