Birthday hike
Just starting to pull together the kit for my big hike from Harlech to Abermaw, down through the Rhinogydd. There are five of us including daughter Eleri, plus dogs making the trek this year.
My intention is to spend my 70th with friends up in the mountains, "far from the madding crowd". Hope the weather is kind to us! |

Re: Birthday hike
Just seen this. Happy birthday Gary. I can't believe you're 70. Enjoy the hike.

Re: Birthday hike
Thanks John. Birthday isn't actually until Wednesday, by which time I should finish the day with the tent pitched at around 2500ft.

Re: Birthday hike
Thought my estimate sounded short. Stayed at Kings YH several years ago and did a walk in that area. Dont know when/if I will ever get back to the high hills - I was diagnosed from suffering from multiple strokes last night at 3am although not too bad symptoms, just very unsteady and slow . Have a great couple of days
