Other: Geocaching - Cadair Idris Wind Direction: N/A Wind Stength: Windy Surf / Sea State: N/A Air Temperature: Cool Sea Temperature: N/A Weather: Wet wet wet Max Speed: Distance Covered: 8 miles (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Decided to take a walk up Cadair so drove around to Ty Nant and started off
on the Foxes Path.
It was pouring with rain and visibility was virtually zero, perfect
conditions for hill-walking. I got to the little river crossing (usually a
small stream) near Goat Lake and had no choice but to wade through with
water up to y thighs... Until this point my feet had stayed relatively
dry!
I found a geocache here and then headed on up to Llyn y Gadair where I
found another cache. From here, rather than head up over the scree to the
summit I walked around the lake under Cyfwry arete (n climbing for me today
though) and then onto the little path that cuts across to the Pony Path. I
met a couple of people on this path who were a little disorientated so I
put them straight as to where they were and continued on to the Pony Path.
I then went up the Pony Path a little way looking for another geocache
before descending to find another and head back to the car.
I got completely soaked, didn't see much but had a good time navigating
around the hill in the mist and rain.
