Park in the Llanberis pass....3

Final pic's today.

Looking across to the old slate quarries.

Looking towards the castle located on the left.

Llanberis pass.

Coming over the mountain the sun is out.

Snowdon in the low cloud.

In the distance Capel Curig.

Walk to the Stwlan dam 3.

Large curbstones.

The dam comes into view.

Looking down on the dam.

The reservoir. During the day water is piped down the mountain to the hydroelectric power station below. When demand for electricity at night is low, the turbines pump the water back up again.

Old mine workings across the lake.

Close up of the mine workings, ceased being used long before the dam was built.

Top of the dam.
