I had planned to film my 100th Video among the high peaks of the Carneddau, but was greeted by no camping signs, barbed wire and endless red plastic traffic cones. It looked more like roadworks on the M1 than a mountain valley, so I got back in my car and took myself off to the Rhinogs, where it feels like home The Rhinogs was where I nervously set out for my first ever multi-night trip, 2 years ago. So the perfect place for my 100th video Day 1 I arrived late in the day, with a redundant paper map of the Carneddau 🫠 and no plan. I decided on day one to just try and make it up to Llyn Morwynion at around 400m, and wow was it beautiful. I scrambled up a stream gorge to the lake, not long before the sun set over the bigger mountains in the distance. The stars shone and reflected in the lake. It dropped to below freezing but I stayed snug in my lil nook I took the MSR Hubba NX for this one as I wanted to be a bit lighter. I'd not used it for over a year since the poles snapped in high winds at Cnicht. I remain cautious of this tent but it was great for this nice still weekend.. barely a breeze so no bother on this occasion Gear List
