That was great. Absolutely stunning scenery and some fantastic photos at the end 👌❤️

Thanks for taking us over this remote Cambrian Hill. I do love these open, remote and quiet hilltops outside the main National parks. Lots of opportunities for wild camping too by the looks of it when I get back on the Cambrian way .

Went there on holidays in May, stayed in Beddgelert. Going back next year staying in Bettws Y Coed then.

Fantastic walk there , it’s on my to do list hopefully this year. Beautiful views over Nant Y Moch reservoir! It’s a cracking summit with a real 360. Thanks for showing us the source of the Wye too that was interesting. Best wishes

That's really great. I had the pleasure to visit Swansea in Wales once. I traveled to see the Dylan Thomas house. Wales and the ancient oaks are really cool. King Arthur territory!

Cracking video Al. Great to see the open vistas and wonderful to see you walking freely at will across this wonderful hill. The Gwy is Welsh for Wye so wondering if there are two sources perhaps that merge? I'm not looking at a map as I say that but just surmising on your comment as Bill went elsewhere.

Nice one Al, difficult to navigate that part of wales I find, thank god for modern tech!

Nice story, if “underwhelming” for you 😂👍

Nice Al. Thanks for sharing. Great photos. Tryfan 2 is a belter.

That's my boy. very enjoyable.

tidy hike that - making me very jealous! maybe the first in a series - The Wye, Usk, Tawe, Towy, Taff??? I can even see a TV series. Al and Bill's Secret Source 🙂 I tried to find the source of the Tawe once, but there were so many springs, etc on teh way up to Llyn y Fan I had no idea which one was the actual source!

That was a good hike and not too difficult a walk with some great views of nant Y moch reservoir, another great memory for the collection.

Nicely done Al, love the music, and editing. The Spilt screen was cool, might nick that idea! Next video, searching for the source of the Nile?

What a fantastic video, the photos the the frozen over Gam are incredible. The final picture is beautiful, it’s very Game of Thrones from north of the wall if you’ve watched that. Absolutely fantastic. I wouldn’t fancy that precarious steep track on the last but towards Gam in the ice either lol. Best wishes

You'd be glad that just now I’ve liked your TH-cam Channel. Cos, your content was really awesome. But unfortunately, there are not much views. I noticed that your video SEO score is too weak according to your needs. Because of that, your video is not reaching your target audience. You will be glad to hear that I can help you increase your SEO score so that it is top on the first page of TH-cam which will increase your subscribers and views organically. So, if you want to do this, I await your response.

I do enjoy the videos in the gorge. This confused me. Spikes on your wellies and an autumnal feel to it!! You might wish to review your geographical knowledge of the Usk and where it meets the Severn 😂😂 An amazing tree. Would love to know its age.

I've saved Tryfan to be my last Welsh 2000 footer. Hopefully will get it ticked off within 2 years. Not many to go now! Thanks for making the video. D

Great shots of Tryfan Alan and yes, looked like quite a slog!

Fantastic views - such a shame about the cloud...glad you got back down in one piece! You got some wonderful shots - your first pano of Tryfan is my favourite. I saw your last video the other day too, but was watching on the TV and didn't have my phone with me, so I wasn't able to comment. That was some tree! Any sort of idea how old it was? Good to see some videos of yours again!

Always looks a gorgeous place to visit, good video to watch, great to see you out and about. Thanks

Great to see you out and about again Al (albeit a few months ago). Snowdonia really does have some vast landscapes. It sounds like a challenging day in the hills. I'm glad you didn't have any problems on your own up there. As you say - you sometimes become suddenly aware of the danger you could be in if something were to go wrong while on your own. Some smashing photos at the end there. "Mount Doom" was a very fitting title 😊 ATB, James.

Some beautifully atmospheric images Alan, it’s many years since I’ve been up to Castel y Gwynt, one of my favourite places in Snowdonia!

Another quality Coles Productions on a moist Glider😅

My favourite mountain of all time Alan, many a happy and also terrifying time spent on its peak and slopes. Tryfan, Bristly Ridge, Castell y Gwynt is just epic

Two vlogs in a week is tremendous mate. See you can do it if you try. Superb work mate.

lovely watch Al 🙂 you really should do more

2nd attempt at getting right to the top from the southern approach route , bit better this time as we had a good view and photo opportunities of south side of Tryfan , but weather didnt play ball for the very top , maybe approach from devils kitchen if we ever try attempt no.3 . Nice bit of editing from Alan with limited video clips , another nice memory of an epic adventure into the mountains of north wales.

Lovely video Alan! And from the same spot where I made my first YT video too! I still haven’t made it back there again yet. I also found myself getting a bit disoriented on that boulder field the first time I visited too, it’s a bit hairy round there. Love the images, especially that first pano shot of Tryfan 👍 S

Hi Alan great video , I drive past that gorge so often on the 465, I never realised it was so beautiful in there. Love the cascades and the tree , fantastic photos at the end. Good to see you posting , keep them going mate always enjoyable and showing me new places! Best wishes

Great video Al and lovely images.

Some lovely images Alan i can see why the tree really grabbed your attention its a great specimen . Must remember to check out that website for trees in my area, think i looked before if i remember . Nice images of the waterfall too and all that extra exercise as a result of forgetting the tripod ! Worth the effort though Alan !

Thanks Al and found this very interesting. Great to see you out and about again on the channel

The beech trees there and in there, are just amazing. Great image at the end of the overhanging beech.

Great to see another one of your outings. The beech tree is amazing and good idea to report it to the Ancient Tree Woodland Trust. I could see it was challenging to get a good angle but I did like your final images… Have you ever held the tripod up in the air with the camera set on a timer to get a higher viewpoint? I tried it in a Lavender field once which came out ok. I plan to do the same this week photographing a poppy field from standing on a wall holding the legs of the tripod as high as I can to see the beach beyond the field… Like I said, I enjoyed your video Alan, 😎👍🏼

back when I was a young man I thought the only Clydach was the one down the road from me here in the loswer Swansea Valley (you know, the one infamous for the awful murders in 1999). It was only in the mid 90s that I realised there was another one when I started heading to Abergavenny area virtually every weekend for a bike race! Sadly I never got to explore the area other than the various road climbs there on my bike. It's a really lovely looking area 🙂 You forgetting your tripod reminded me of the first time I hiked to the Gam, only to get there and realise my tripod was in the car. Oh how I laughed… Anyway, your woodland shots are kust on another level. The look you get is just superb 🙂

Very nice Alan and some cracking images

Glad to see you are still putting a vlog out. Love to the lovely Mrs C.

Hello Alan. So good to see you back out again. That's brilliant. Beautiful place. Hope that tree hangs on for many more years, beautiful and huge. Loved the photos too, close up of mushrooms looked great👌 Hope your wife is getting better. Cracking video. Looking forward to more👋

You're rather good at this vloggy-photography stuff. I really must get over and explore the gorge at some point soon. Catch up in the near future.

great video alan glad you pop up in my sub box again buddy

Thank you for sharing this, Alan. I have only ever heard of Clydach Gorge so this was great to watch, what a beautiful place! Beech trees are my favourite trees of them all and that is one magnificent beast. Some great photography too, I loved that shot of the mushrooms. Hope you're keeping well. Take it easy, Ryan.

Great to see you out and about Alan

Wow1 Stunning place to be love waterfalls and rushing streams!

Just found this, what a place and some cracking images

Love this one Alan, which limestone country?

What a fantastic video, so well shot and edited! Plus a cracking shot at the end!

Fantastic Alan - a beautiful rendnition of what looks to be an amazing hill. All the very best. Mark
