Great video again Russ. I did this walk only last week, but approached from 6 miles or so to the south. Quite steep at times, but then again most things are for an old fart...😂. I live within an hour of these lakes and this place is my favourite anywhere in the world. People used to leave tins of soup, beans etc on the ledge up above the fire in the hut, for those who were stuck, not sure if the practice is followed now, there was nothing there last week at least. I've been up there in the snow and it's wild...! The wind last week was probably 40 knots - made things interesting along the ridges. keep up the great work...😉

Wow, epic views. Solid production, well done man! Love the progress map btw 👍🏻

The views on top are incredible!! Love the drone footage. Really cool video 👍

Well done! Really enjoying the production and compositions of your shots. The progression map is awesome. Gorgeous location as well.

Illegal or not, after 8pm you're not going to get anyone up here. if the weather gets too bad (& it can...😂) just sleep in the old pump house you can see in the video. There's 2 long benches in there that beats sleeping on the floor, plus there's a fireplace and chimney - assuming you've got something to burn of course. just do it...😉

Great video (and your others). Where did you park the car for this? Did you just use the car park at the start of the track and did it feel safe if so? I'm looking to do a wild camp but just nervous about leaving my car overnight.

Wild camping isn't really legal anywhere in Wales without the landowner's permission. But use common sense and leave no trace and it isn't a problem in our experience. Don't light a fire, setup your tent at dusk away from the trail and you should be fine. We just came back from the area yesterday and pitched at Llyn y Fan Fach. No-one else there, magic.

Watch for the lady in the lake her sword is very sharp
