A microadventure paddling up the Welsh coast, finding a secluded beach to camp on, catching fish and snorkelling for spider crabs for dinner, and sleeping by the camp fire.
5 people who had never met before, united via Twitter, set off from Glasgow at 5pm one Tuesday night.
We climbed the Campsie Fells and bivvied on the top. The view down over Glasgow was fantastic.
We were back in town by 9am the next morning.

The Government recognises the challenges faced by apartment building owners to address combustible cladding without assistance.
In late 2020, the ACT Government announced that it would develop a scheme to support eligible private building owners to respond to potential cladding issues. The ACT Cladding Program will provide financial support during phase one – testing and assessment and concessional loans for phase two – remediation.
To assist building owners and to ensure the safety of residents, the ACT Government is offering Owners Corporations of eligible apartment buildings a rebate of 50% (up to a maximum of $20,000 ex GST) of the costs of having the cladding on their building tested and assessed.

Park the golf cart at the gate ready to pop out in the evening for a solo hit.

After dropping down 400 feet you traverse along ledges towards Glacier Lake. There are several tarns along the way and I caught Lemah Peak swirling in clouds reflected.
