On Saturday, 6 ramblers gathered on Manmoel Road, above Mountain Air Gate, for our 7-mile Y Domen Fawr circular. The day began a little chilly and grey, and with the forecast looking less than promising, waterproofs were kept close to hand. Thankfully, apart from a few short showers, the weather was kinder than expected.
