14°C, N wind, expected strong at the top. Clear and sunny.
Down to 3 of us. Chris dropped out with blisters caused by poor fitting boots.
Again, I powered ahead on the up climb and lagged on the descents.
Carl and Emma actually ran the descent after Bwlch Cwm Glas. That stretch is all slate waste, though dry, the progress was good. Emma sprang ahead, and I stayed with Carl.
The weather was superb, crisp sun brought out the land in its finest.
