 On April 7, 2007, I took new photos of clear-cut, #9 and new tank. We have already cut trees by end of road and will cut trees for new parking lot next weekend.

 I have been busy with the painting of the water tanks at Rhyd Ddu (I shall be back there again March 17) and have not yet managed to do any track-laying with the Tuesday Gang this year.  However, the three (Tuesday plus two weekend) gangs are making good progress.  They have reached the big cutting just north of Beddgelert  and the next section is the S-curve leading into Beddgelert station area.
