Mountains:⛰️ Moelwyn Bach⛰️ Moelwyn Mawr⛰️ Rhinog Fawr
Day 2 of the 2021 DBR was an incredibly tough challenge in the Rhinogs. The heat was relentless, and the clear, sunny weather offered no respite. I’ll never forget how I felt when I first laid eyes on Rhinog Fach—my legs were in bits, and I could feel tears welling up, convinced I had taken on more than I could handle.The route covered 60.61 km with 3364 m of ascent, climbing peaks like Moelwyn Bach, Moelwyn Mawr, and Rhinog Fawr. The terrain was unforgiving, and the heat made every step a battle. Despite feeling completely overwhelmed, somehow, I managed to push through and complete the day.There were moments where it felt nearly impossible, but reaching the valley camp at the end of the day brought a deep sense of relief and accomplishment. This day was a test of sheer determination, and getting through it reaffirmed my resolve to see the DBR through to the end.This Quality Mountain Day was a brutal yet transformative experience, highlighting the mental and physical resilience required to tackle such extreme challenges.
