A small but unmistakable patch of June snow in Wales! The trip report is here, and the date is unequivocal (2nd June). The location, so far as I can establish, is around here, at 820 metres, on Glyder Fach.
I was up on Glyder Fach/Fawr 22nd May and Snowdon 23rd May and can confirm that there were a number of small snow patches, the ones I remember are:
1) Two too the north of the path which runs from Llyn y Cwm to the summit of Glyder Fawr.
2) One high up in Cwm Bochlwrd (probably the same one firefly saw)
3) Several patches visible on the distant mountainside looking towards Snowdon from Llyn y Cwm (Cwm Glas/Cwm Uchaf I think)
4) On the scree/cliffs to the south of the Miners/Pyg Track above Glaslyn.
I do have pictures, which i'll post if I have time to dig them out.
