This is hugely concerning - those poor families must be beside themselves.
That's a typo by the BBC. It's PONT Aberglaslyn. I know the road there, it's a junction on a bridge over a river.
For those local, is it the A415?

Ambulance service issues statement
The Welsh Ambulance Service says it was called at about 10:08 GMT this morning to reports of an incident near the A4085 between Nantmor and Tan-Lan in Gwynedd.
“We sent an operations manager, two emergency ambulances and two Cymru High Acuity Response Units to the scene where we were supported by the Emergency Medical Retrieval and Transfer Service in two Wales Air Ambulance charity helicopters," it said.
Going by the Flightradar website, it looks as if the air ambulance has been in the area since around 1125 hours today (21 Nov) and hasn't yet left. There is no guarantee that the Flightradar data is totally accurate or complete, of course.Heartbroken friends pay tributes to four teenagers found in car
A huge search and rescue operation had been underway in a bid to find four teenage boys missing in Snowdonia, Jevon Hirst, Harvey Owen, Wilf Henderson, and Hugo Morriswww.walesonline.co.uk
The response from the ambulance service doesn’t sound promising. I doubt they’d comment on anything if they were still at the scene
They were called at 10:08
What worries me is there are four of them. Sheltering in a cave would be a good idea, I think (getting out of the wind and weather if nothing else), if it looked safe,Would a cave be warmer or colder if they were in one for the past 2 days?
You'd hope that they wouldn't let one person go off alone unless of course 3 were too injured to go for help and one going was the only viable option.What worries me is there are four of them.

but a group of four is just big enough that one of them may have been tempted to go off and look for help. I really hope they are all safe.
If the FR24 data is accurate, then the air ambulance has landed in a field off a farm track about a mile from the road, where there are fields it could have landed in much closer to the road, which would suggest that something has been discovered away from the car.Going by the Flightradar website, it looks as if the air ambulance has been in the area since around 1125 hours today (21 Nov) and hasn't yet left.
