What I loved about this moment was the light illuminating the ridge ahead and the cool, invigorating feeling in the air.

Get in touchThe moment
On descending Yr Wyddfa via the SW ridge, there is a minor summit named Clawdd Coch that I had always called, rightly or wrongly, Tregalan.
This spot always catches me, and today I was indecisive.
There is a choice a little further on, where you can veer right down the Rhydd Ddu path. It's shorter and technically easier and I was feeling tired. But this was the way I came up and I had planned to do the loop.
It made me feel a bit slack. Perhaps I was taking the easy option and I'd regret it. So I chose not to ignore the sunlit lure of the southern ridge that leads to Bwlch Cwmllan. I committed.
I ended up having the most wonderful run. Suddenly everything felt easy. I couldn't wait to get home and capture this moment in a painting.
