Exquisite position for a cairn.... there were others nearby; however, I reckoned the vibe was too strong to turn this is into a ‘tick-list’ exercise and I would spend the available time here. OK, might have had something to do with not wanting to lose even more height I’d have needed to regain... getting old.

A sunburst retrospective of the wondrous landscape context beginning the return to the similarly unmarked (on either current 1:50k or 1:25k OS map) Hafen stone ‘pair’ towards Gorllwyn.
