Elan Valley Dams


A few retro photos this week taken back in 2006 at the Elan Valley in Wales, this is one of my favorite places to visit if you click on the above link you can rad the blog I wrote on the valley and the other dams there.

This is the Caban Coch dam


 That dam is 120 ft high

We were heading to another dam and the road went along a river called the Afon Claerwen it feeds into the dam we just came from

You pass this waterfall

As we got near the dam I noticed these landrover going off road though a lot of mud


 Ok they could do it


This is what we came to see the Claerwen dam this one is even higher at 144ft

From the dam looking over at the reservoir

This is very interesting. I've never heard of the Elan Valley any more. 2006 was when my daughter (my youngest child) was born! It feels a long time ago now.
