SO2334 : Path heading south down the Darren Lwyd
taken 12 years ago, 4 km NW of Capel-y-Ffin, Powys, Wales

Path heading south down the Darren Lwyd
It's clagged out - hill fog has masked the views and shut visibility down to maybe 50 metres.
The one big minus about walking in the Black Mountains is that they are often subject to hill fog and all too often a ridge walk here means coping with these conditions. For me this means singing loudly, increasing my pace, addressing inanimate objects in overly familiar terms, thumbing the map to keep a good handle on where I am and generally trying to help the time pass fast.
