Shaping the landscape

A series of cirques on the north flank of the Glyderau range in Snowdonia, Wales, viewed from Tryfan. The centre left peak is Y Garn (943 m), and the tarn below is Llyn Idwal. It was in the cirque containing this tarn that Charles Darwin recognised evidence of glaciation for the first time in Wales, in 1842. MH
