Brecon Beacons, Wales |
Photos and text by Jonathan
These photos were taken on a short (but wet) trip to the Brecon Beacons with the Cambridge University Hill Walking Club (CUHWC). We did a 30-35km walk across Black Mountain one day.. with lots of hail and thunder followed by a cruisy waterfalls walk. The fresh rain brought the forest and waterfalls to life. Although not that high, and arguably not very spectacular, I thought the Brecon Beacons were a great place with a special quality of light and a sense of space and remoteness..
The following weekend I returned to the Beacons... but this time underground with the caving club!
