Shouldv'e got the Buell chaps to have a word with me (I did offer them local advice ) You missed out the best part of The Wayfarers (Mrs Adam owns some land that butts up against it) since there's a permissive route that takes you SW towards Cadair Bronwen - a beautiful mountain which my youngest daughter is named after; it has fantastic panoramic views over the entire range and also over Snowdonia. I hope you signed the book at the Memorial stone at Pen Bwlch

Penultimate shot is a nice one of Llanrhaedr village centre
After you went into Llandrillo did you do any of the river crossings in Cwm Pennant, they're huge fun

yes we signed the book in horizontal rain!
we did go through a few fords..
apart from that next time i am up i will let you know and maybe we can pair up and go for your suggested route...
thx Lars
