• Rhingos Fach Check point 26

    August 23, 2019 in Wales ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

    Friday: As forecast pitch still in cloud when I awoke beside Llyn Hywel. I left pitch in place taking only essentials for ascent up Rhingos Fach. Traverse along lakeside boulders again took 45 minutes to Col / Bwlch. Then 45 minutes scrambling over huge boulders to the summit. Weather slightly brighter at the summit. I suspect I was close to the top of the clouds.

    Walk back down to pitch took the same 90 minutes. Forecast was for sun to break out so I made lunch in the hope tent would dry out for packing.
