Cracking video! I camped on the little grass section down at llyn hywel a couple months ago and you’re right about the remoteness, definitely feel like you’re the only one for miles in the Rhinogs. Enjoyed seeing higher up, hope to get up there when I return to the area next year

Lovely video again Dave, thank you. It is always a breath of fresh air to join you on your mountain ventures. How wonderfully ironic to see you the SOLO summiteer, wild camping ONE on ONE, and LONE explorer, bunched together as a bantering gang on the hills in Wales. What a gallant effort of you to describe your route with all those Welsh hilltop names around you. In the Lake District you can rattle off the whole panorama mentioning every peak that you can see, but it’s quite funny when you have to refer to ‘I’ll put the name of this hill on screen’. All the best to you, keep safe, and I look forward to your next trip.
