Bagged as an extension of the Table Mountain circular walk from Crickhowell. The weather improved as the day went on and we were rewarded with clear panoramic views from the trig, well worth the additional effort! When we first reached the trig there were flies swarming around but thankfully they eventually disappeared. A really exhilarating walk!

First of the day on an up and down visit to the Crickhowell trigs. Super walk up after parking near to the school and following the ROW up along the river and woods steep but far more picturesque (on a dry day!) than the Table Mountain side which we visited on the way back. Great views when the snow, sleet broke to glorious sunshine and you could sit out of the cool breeze! Two sight holes open, Flush Bracket and spider in place quick lunch and off to number 2!

Lovely circular walk taking in three tops.Started and finished at "Green Cottage" to the SE. The hard part is the 460m ascent from the start,the rest is a bit easier! Summit is rocky and familiar from my round of the Welsh Hewitts. Pillar has some surface cracks but nothing too bad. Did not see a soul in 9 miles,and the weather was excellent.

A sad looking trig which is cracked and looks like it's been patched up quite some time ago. Views good from nearby, though the summit is quite flat. Weather cleared up as soon as we started the descent!

No cap or plug. Deep open crack at FB level. Fine stone/rock summit, great views.

Logging this trig retrospectively in 2010. Visited on a hot and sunny day on the first day of our week in a holiday cottage at Llanbedr.

First of 3 trigs planned for the day, not very interesting, according to Julie. Although this thought was not unanimous.

The trig is cracked around its bottom half. Plug missing. Walked up from the valley to the east. The clouds occasionally cleared to give us a view into the valleys below but otherwise it turned out to be a misty day

Walked up from Crickhowell in increasing misty and damp conditions, it would only get worse!
