Did a circuit of Cefn Isaf, Pen Carn Saith Wraig and Pen y Gurnos from Soar Mynydd. 2 hours 20 mins about 6 and a half miles mostly on paths or tracks. Didn't see a soul either on the walk or on the six mile drive from Abergwesyn.	clivevilla	20/12/2021

Added to a good walk from Soar y Mynydd visiting Doethie Fach (near the old Tyn-y-cornel YH) and returning via Nantllwyd. Excellent views of fine valleys and good paths across the moorland were features of this 7 mile walk with Pete. The view from the summit isn't much better than from the paths as the base of a conifer plantation is just 40 ft below, though the Brecon Beacons come into view.	pwheeler	03/05/1998
