| Fine hill- if there were paths in the access land down the ridge and by the shore it would be a cracking hill half-day. But the access land looked rough and untrodden so we walked up the quarry track from Faedre road end like nearly everyone else. With Pete. Fine, but starting to cloud over. | pwheeler | 30/04/2017 |
| There's certainly some fine looking HuMPs and Tumps around Llyn Clywedog. A little bit against the time for Myrddyn's 1000th Welsh P30 event. | Alex C | 15/04/2017 |

| Tried to access from open access land to nth side, but not clear, so popped over fence and up what was old quarry track, from 909 892, past some bemused cows which had most peculiar markings. See google satellite view to see track. Fences to cross. | dicky | 24/06/2013 |
