Wales 1930 JUDGES Postcard NANT FFRANCON Francon Bridge
Early Picture post Card, Mountains, River, Cascade, Bridge. Rocks. The Nant Ffrancon Pass climbs up into a desolate wilderness along a route called "the most dreadful horse path in Wales" before Thomas Telford carved out the A5 through the valley. The pass is sandwiched between two of the region's most spectacular mountain ranges. The most famous peak called Tryfan (the trident). Although it's a mere 3010ft (917m) this fierce, volcanic outcrop is possibly the most challenging summit in the whole of north Wales that can be scaled without resorting to ropes and climbing. This was the region in which the first successful Everest expedition trained in the early 1950's
