And here's my photo diary! Sorry A friend!

Wonderful views from the campsite, it was pitch black when I arrived so this was a nice surprise!

Image

Image

I got all David Attenbourgh with a crow

Image

Wagons ready to roll!

Image

This was a fun gate to open and close! The mud was green and smelled awful!

Image

The lesser spotted Frontera B (both currently with shields!)

Image

Image

Image

Being in 2 groups of 3, we spent 20 mins waiting at the top of the hill for the other group to move on, not realising they were waiting to picture us doing this 3 point turn that all (in our group) did without hassle!

Image

Image

A helping push....

Image
Image
Image

That none of the second 3 needed!

Image

Image

The lost lake

Image

Drift shows off to the Green Oval boys....

Image
There were some seriously sorted LR's there

I just love this pic! Something about the way its so terribly exposed etc just works for me.

Image

Those rain clouds are approaching, and it's getting dark!

Image

Things brightened up on the Wayfairer. Paul and I stopped at the bottom of this hill to get all artsy!

Image

Image

Image

Image

The things we went through to get these pics!

Image

The summit was not fun!

Image

Image

The fourth emergency service?

Image

But there was something nice back at the pub!

Image

Sunday

Image
Yep, it's an engine!

That needed a little help...

Image

At one point, I thought this was the only Laning we would get to do!

Image

Image

Getting slightly arty again....
Image

Fording...

Image

Image

Image

Image

Such a great lane!
Image

Local wildlife

Image

The views were great!

Image

Image

Image

Image
That's Trawsfynydd in the background....

Image

Tho it was a little tight in places!

Image

Image

How to drive off-road....

Image

How not to drive...

Image

Image

Where's that Scottish guy with the winch?!

Image

Wasn't there a sign saying Soft Verges?!

Image

This little section prooved the need for bash plates!

Image

Image

Image

(Which I didn't have!)

Image 8)

To get these views, I'd try and get anything up there!

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

After that, we made our descent. Stopped at a watering hole for the V6 and parted ways!

14 pages of pictures HERE

Thanks to all concerned for an excellent weekend away, the company, views and lanes made it a really special weekend!
