Pen y Fan, GW/SW-001 - 886m ASL - SO 012 216 - OS Explorer OL12 - 8 SOTA points Wednesday 20th April 2022 - Mynydd Eppynt GW/SW-018 & Pen y Fan GW/SW-001
Lunch was triple decker bacon cheeseburger - “belly buster" - from butty van near Storey Arms.
Now for an activation of Pen y Fan GW/SW-001 - highest peak in Brecon Beacons. Easy walk up - normally an hour - but took slightly longer in the sweltering heat of the day. All radio contacts on 2m FM with handheld.
Back to hotel in Builth Wells for a shower and change, then out to a favourite of ours - The New Inn. Newbridge-On-Wye. Great to see the landlady Sian again, and lovely faggots chips and mushy peas for tea. Liam was chuffed because it happened to be bingo night. Good job there was a pool table in the other room!
Day 3 would kick off with a visit to Black Mountain GW/SW-041.
