| On traverse of Cadair Idris tops from Dolgellau: Gau Craig to Braich Ddu including Cyfrwy. Then down to Arthrog. Sunshine but also brief patches of cloud on the tops, hazy, typical nice summer day on the hills. A long-awaited, long planned walk even to the detail of driving up the road towards Bwlch Goch, 25 mins walk from Dolgellau, to ensure catching the last bus back. It took 8 hrs. Highly recommended (6 Nuttalls). | pwheeler | 31/08/1996 |
