Just two hardy souls set off from Abergavenny one mild december day, out of town, to the country, up hill and down dale.
Well, a bit more up than down.


Past the frozen Gwryne Fawr reservoir

Upto the tiniest bothy in the world/wales/maybe


Bloody good job we didn’t stay there as we met two other lads on their way up and we heard another 2?/3? voices heading that way just as darkness was falling.

Campsite was made during darkness so i’ll show you the fire

Breakfast from bed

Waiting for a brew

Our camp from up high

Then a blast downhill back to Waitrose and a fried breakfast, what could be better?

Jealous, well done chaps

Looks great!

Nice one chaps – well done. Sorry not to have made this one – will have to head out another time.

Late Feb Epic up Cadair then?

Can’t do late feb but have a trip earmarked for the 18/19/20 March from Machynlleth to ????? if anybodys intrested.

Flatfish – up for that but will have to confirm dates with the Mrs

Looks a good trip.

What tarp is that Taylor? Might be in market for one.

Already booked for week commencing 18th March unfortunately.

It’s a hennessey hammock hex tarp with a continuous ridge line from whoopie slings in the US.

Cheers Taylor. Considering making my own, stumbled across a pattern but should it all go wrong may need to buy something.

yeah good stuff that!!

Nice up there hellish as a climb tho good times

looks like you had a good time, well jealous was up in Aberdeen bored off my nips with the in-laws 🙁

will let you know about March, could be a good time to aim to minimise my bivi kit to as near in size as you lot and not bring the gear to support a platoon 😯

Anyone know of any good deals in the sales on Ti pots/mugs etc

A fairly decent combo to get you started on the ultra lite geekness quest.

may have to drop the “pseudo middle class party food” on the next bivi trip to fund it 🙁

ValleyDaddy:

On the last trip I had one of these, for the money you can’t beat it.

£25 Linky clicky
