GW/MW-010 - Gwaunceste Hill, 542m, 2 points
John M0JDK, Steve 2E0KPO decided to activate the Gwaunceste Hill on the 16th February 2008. The views on the way up are quite good and we suspect at the summit but we were in the mist. Starting at a farm, with a whole host of dogs to contend with, all chained up on our visit, the walk to the summit is on a stone road. You could, if you sort permission, drive to the summit in a good 4x4.
3.34 Miles total walk - Start SO 14908 57313
The summit is in the clouds
A good stone track to the summit
Looking back
Looking up
We made it
Roll on summer, the wind was not much but at -3.3C and
having a wind chill or -10.7C you soon get cold
