Long mucky trek followed by a heather bash to summit
by Fergalh  14 Jun 2022
From Feol Cynfal we headed south which led to a large drop into a boggy heather filled area crisscrossed by a few streams. We had been spoilt up to now with the three 500's being easy ground now this was the painful part. Firstly we got soaked negotiating this marshy area. before we reached a large stone wall. We by passed Y Garn and found a breach in the wall and did a heather bash all the way to the south summit which was marked with a few small stones Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/B14359/comment/23543/
