As I turned over to go back to sleep I noticed a pinkish tinge filtering under the Trailstar. The wind had finally dropped and the inside of my shelter was covered in a layer of frost. Thankfully the forecast low cloud and mist had not materialised. I slid out of my sleeping bag, still dressed in my down jacket and headed for the door. The cold silent air bit at my face as I pulled my hat to cover my ears. I had woken just in time to witness something magical.

Now that’s a real tease. Where is that… No obvious summits, and the one you’re pitched on isn’t *that* much higher than the surroundings. Shot in the morning, so the tent is facing roughly north…
That valley in the middle distance looks very steep sided, and you mentioned Mid-Wales, I’m going to guess Elan Valley, maybe Gorllwyn…?

Always nice to see a happy hound with his shelter ….now if we could just teach our hounds to put the shelters up for us !!!

Ho hum, nothing on the telly again…

NICE PITCH!
I need to hit some hills.
Snake pass in a week and a bit, and then near Warwick bridge at end of March.
Can’t wait!

Nice spot to camp James. Ice on the shelter too. New camera is delivering the shots nicely. Look forward to the trip write up.

That Trailstar tarp/shelter looks brilliant!……stunning sunrise too of course!

Fantastic, are you pleased with the new camera so far? The results look pretty good. I’ve not managed to take mine out in the hills yet, hopefully soon.

Great photos! Obviously the camera and operator have a lot to say in capturing a fantastic image, but so does putting yourself in the right place at the right time – which you did!
