Patrik Albertsson | Jun 27 2023, 7:54am | Thank you for well wishes. The weather turned a bit different from forecast the evening before. Did learn a lot and happy to have tried and very keen to try again. Experiences I will bring with me will include taking landmarks , the wind blew me out of direction several times when I was busy checking the footing. When you can’t see any landmark . My visibility from stony top was up to 5 m with two good torches. Then I have to check map more often and compass direction more precise. A fantastic learning experience in total not at least for My head that had to work hard to stay focused when I felt lost and couldn’t see anything . |
