“The Summit of Snowdon: Here you are nearer to heaven”
Catchy sentiments; and maybe, but still a long way off, were my first impressions. I think I’ll have to sit out on the theological arguments about that one!! Later thoughts might have contemplated things along the lines of this: Climbers and walkers are among the most generously spirited folk and the camaraderie of the mountain climbing fraternity has something to offer to an often mean spirited world, perhaps a glimpse of heaven? Well, to the world of a popular (or perhaps less so) religion, I guess it is easier to have heaven as a place out of reach to even those who chose to climb an average-sized mountain.
However, the new building looks great and sits well on Yr Wyddfa, (something the old cafe never did, but I’ll miss the Guinness)
Hafod Eryri opens on June 12th weather permitting!!
