Certainly didn't feel like January, layers were stripped off for Mona Gowan today! I hurt my back last week so am taking it 'easy' :lol: Walking is good, sitting is painful, so I decided to head out a bag a Graham. Mona Gowan had only just been added to our 'Wishlist' (love this feature!) and has been taken off just as quickly as we have now done it :lol: Just the easy very clear landrover track with only one large puddle to navigate around all the way up, and then all the way back down again nothing strenuous about this route.
