Description

Set off at 7pm on the 18th up to 609532 to camp over night then head out and do some night nav. I discovered my torch isn`t quite as bright as i thought it was and that there`s a reason I don`t watch horror movies, I scare far too easily. Constantly looking over my shoulder and i thought every sheep was someone coming after me Utterly ridiculous. Got up early the next morning and packed up camp. Contoured around in the valley to work on 1:25 nav since I`ve been focusing on 1:50 a lot recently.
The plan from there was to head out towards Harlech and have a play and wild camp in the Rhinog`s however my car decided to break down for the 3rd time. So I had to head back to the Hostel. I`m hoping that it can be fixed in one day and then I can head out Friday and Sat so I`m not behind in my QMD`s
