A five minute drive from Pen y Bont saw us back in Llanarmon, from where we headed up the minor road to Pentre.
Sue captured the fresh blossom of a roadside shrub.
On reaching the end of the road at Swch-cae-rhiw, and attempt by locals to exclude trial bikes and 4x4 vehicles from the hill tracks. This is mainly a weekend problem. We saw nobody today.
Up at the farm, a collection of US forces vehicles - not in particularly good condition.
We enjoyed good views back along the Ceiriog valley in the fine weather, before a persistent drizzle assumed command.
Elevenses in the sunshine with striking views.
Sue and Paul went off with Rufus to explore some waterfalls.
Meanwhile, Jeanette and I viewed the waterfalls from afar.
Eventually we met up again.
Lunch in the rain, with music provided by a Mistle Thrush.
After a while we reached a familiar track near Bryn Du, from where we descended easily to Llanarmon.
Sue spotted some Fool's Liquorice on the way down.
Today's stats - 14km with 380 metres ascent, taking 5 hours, including a half hour wait for the waterfall contingent. Here's the route.
