Walk up Cadiar Idris

[DaveGSCymro]

Following on from a discussion here the idea of a group walk up and around Cadair Idris has arisen. For those not local there would be the opportunity to camp, thinking sometime in the middle of October, if you're interested reply to this thread.

By the way, I'm not a mountain guide and have never been up there before so the usual rules apply

Nice one Dave, I'm up for this.

Dates might be difficult but if I can make it I will

Good idea ... not done that for 30yrs !!

 

[Doug]

I would have liked to tag along but haven't got a free weekend in October

 

[DaveGSCymro]

How about a provisional date of Saturday 10th October

Another link to the suggested route.

There is a link to various download files, worth having look in Google Earth

Campsite in Minffordd, will try and get more details.

Link to show where the campsite is, don't have any further details yet. If anyone is in the area and they could have a look it would be handy,

Sat 10th of Oct is good for me, I'll camp Friday night as I can't get there for early doors otherwise.

Route looks good

Looking forward to it.

Now come on Derek the weather man sort the weather out.

Hopefully I shall be drinking with Andy, moderately of course.
