Winter in Huelgoat
Well we are well into our first winter here, we have had some good weather, quite warm and sunny at times ( almost like spring) . Two weeks ago the temperature dropped to -12 and the lake froze over, then we had snow which only lasted for a day.
The rain at times has been torrential which is spectacular to watch as it leaves the lake and cascades down into Chaos . This has given me inspiration to get out with the camera, instead of staying in the warm. I have had some really long walks ,down through Chaos to le Gouffre. down the valley to the Old Mine and up to the Canal , back through Chaos to home , a round trip of about four hours. We have had snow again for the last two days (2nd & 3rd Feb , the lake was partly frozen this morning but it turned out a bright and sunny day. Managed to get a tractor load of logs the other day plus a delivery of heating fuel so we are nice and warm.
The first two pictures of the forest were taken just outside the front door, the last two are at le Gouffre waterfalls just down the valley.
