A roundup of unusual things seen in Welsh slate mines last weekend!

Snow...

This was a good 100 yards underground in the A floor adit at Croesor at the beginning of the Croesor Rhosydd through trip with some people from NWCC and Dudley Cavng Club.

I saw this at a distance and though there'd been a collapse.

Never seen it snow underground before :lol:

Actually it had all fallen in from a shaft that connects with the adit. And as we were stood looking at it some great big lumps of solid ice came crashing down 😮

Apple Tree

Happily growing in the dark in a Corris region slate mine!

I was expecting a self-portrait! :lol:

That snow is an odd one, to say the least :thumbup:
Hello again darkness, my old friend...
