Third hill of the day with near perfect wintry conditions, which I was glad about because it must be a bog fest in some areas. | simocity | 01/12/2023 |

A round of Moel Meirch, Ysgafell Wen North top, Ysgafell Wen and Druman. Lost path in ascent of Moel Meirch which cost me time but not much difficulty. Ridge with diversions to each of tops fairly straightforward but initial lost time meant I had to pass on Allt-Fawr - left for another day. Descent line from Druman not clear to start with but a very good path from point where it turns sharply tyo west. | dickscroop | 13/01/2022 |
