Peaks Crossed:Ben y Phot (544 m)Coldon (487 m)Slieu Ruy (479 m)Greeba Mountain (422 m)
This solo hike was focused on training with the full Spine kit, emphasizing both physical endurance and navigation practice. The weather was overcast with no wind, providing stable conditions for a long day out in the hills. I covered significant distance and elevation, hitting several peaks along the way: Ben y Phot, Coldon, and Greeba Mountain. The day provided an excellent opportunity to refine navigation skills while managing a full kit, which is crucial preparation for the Spine Race. The combination of physical effort, navigation practice, and gear management made this a highly productive and valuable day in the hills.
