Forecast looks okay - anyone out?

Post by Bearbonesnorm »

Anyone got anything planned for the weekend ? A quick sub-24 hour close to home or something a little more 'exotic' maybe ?

I've just packed and am hoping to spend tonight on the highest peak in southern Snowdonia and Sunday night on the highest peak in the Cambrians ... we'll see ;)

Just got back from last night's bivi. Shinything's Alfine was playing up and he wouldn't head into the hills on his SS so I managed to talk him into other means of transport......

My Karrimor Xlite mat's leaking and my Snugpak Travel Lite sac was only just warm enough with a pair of leggings, hooded merino, T-shirt and Montane Featherlight. Last time I used it up on the moor I was toasting and the outside temperature was several degrees colder :?


I'm getting on with my Jetboil though. Before I got mine free with Trail Mag I was sneering at them and dismissing them as fools' trinkets.....

Weather was good when I got home from work Friday night so I grabbed the bike and headed off to the Eildon Hills (only about 7 miles away). Only a short trip out for the night alone but most enjoyable after a crap week.

Stupidly I rode through this, in the middle it was up to the sleeping bag on my bars!
