The weather was fine and sunny for the ascent, which started very steeply. It was pretty hot and sweaty for the team as the first hour or so was up a sharp gradient. Luckily this gave way to an easy plateau, which led the team onto the final push for their destination summit of Aran Fawddwy in the distance.
A very good day's exercise following the summit and then descent down the side of a steep valley back to Mistress Smemo's reliable little car, which managed the trip there, around and back with hardly any protest.
It was a great trip out of London and a really good way of doing exercise and seeing some beautiful scenery whilst achieving something for charity. The whole team were pretty exhausted by the end, but happy once showered and after their mammoth celebratory meal in the local village to replace all those calories! Very enjoyable!
