To the east of mother hill and sacred mountain, Tryfan, is a long ridge of rock that runs north to south and parallel to the big pointy mountain. On the other side of the rocky ridge is this well preserved hut circle. Strangely it has an inner circle of stones within, but I've no idea if its original or not (get the team in). Today's weather is mostly mist and drizzle so the awesome views one would expect were hidden from me, but it didn't seem to matter, just being there at all is an intense experience.
