paulsmithy83 567 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Which way you go up???? Not a bad walk at all but as summits go its one the easier . As it seems you start higher up on sea level. There some lower peaks around but alot harder to walk. Bet the mutt was bored there aint much to really hunt there either. That where fugi lucky amazing peaks covered in game. Brecons and surroundings is practicly barran which shame as it epic landscape. Bitch looks to have come a good stamp what here height/weight now. J said she ticking over nicely Quote Link to post
Wales1234 5,682 Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 God know which way bud was bloody steep anyway !! Naaa she just enjoys being out even though she loves work does seem to just enjoy being out and about running around !! She's about 24 bud never weighted her but yeaa she's ticking nicely puts enough away for me like Quote Link to post
paulf 820 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 looks a killer mate ...don't they call it the fan dance ?its where part of the the selection for the sas is right ? Quote Link to post
Wales1234 5,682 Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Yeeep same place the sas run across its brutel not gone like feck running it !! Quote Link to post
paulsmithy83 567 Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Not a military buff but think the fan dance is longer then the tourest walk. Think it 30 plus mile over brecons including fan summit running carrying 50kg lol. If park in tourest main pen fan car park There two normal ways up is one side is about 1.5 mile with a more gentle rise. Other slight harder way is you walk about 1000 meters with easy to moderate inclibe then for the path to drop 100 meters or so then raise back up with a steep incline. Alot tougher walk probly take 30mins fit guy. Took me 55mins with bad ankle lol done it loads. Find malverns and even dales alot harder. Great for fitness if take tennis ball for lurcher and play on slope at summit. Should run it next time owen Quote Link to post
