Walk stats: Distance: 7.0 miles. Climb: 1108'.
Time: 4 hours 15 minutes. On the move walking average: 2.3 m.p.h. Overall walk average: 1.6 m.p.h. (We must be taking longer for lunch these days!)
Group: Martyn, Tim, David S, Phil and Paul.
Another walk that was a little shorter than usual, but that was my fault as I had forgotten to take in to account that there wa a good amount of the two walks that overlapped.
The weather today was almost perfect for walking, not too hot and and not too cold, and the only rain we had was during lunch and just after lunch, but neither amounted to much.
The views from the toposcope in Waun-y-Llyn Country Park were good in all directions.
Having seen a couple of walkers next to the trig point on Hope Mountain, I think we will attempt to visit it next time we do this walk.
Birds seen or heard today were few and far between, but included: Common blackbird, Barn swallow, Carrion crow, Raven, winter wren, Black-billed magpie and Common buzzard.
After walk drinks were enjoyed at the Railway Inn at Pontybodkin, where the Llangollen bitter at £2-00 a pint went down very well!
