Day Three on the The Cambrian Way mountain trail 479 km (298 miles) with a total ascent of 22,460 m (73,700 ft). I think it could be Britain's hardest long distance trail. Its hard to say but looking at the map i think i started todays episode around the Mynydd Garnclochdy area i want give exact camping locations away. I was so wet from the rain all night i set about getting ready to walk around 4am just to keep warm. I was no risk at cold from the time of Year and in good health. So walked back up towards Mynydd Garnclochdy i think. The rain came back on top the hill. The rain was very bad so much so i could only see about couple of meters ahead what with the mist as well as the dark even with two powerful lights. By this time my cannon camera was destroyed by the weather i should know by now and my phone was useless take note people think phone navigation fine lucky i know this i used my garmin fenix3 gps watch with the track loaded onto so i knew i was heading in the general dir

Time travel wild camping and Vango F10 Helium review
So i was taking magnetic readings with my magnetometer when i experienced rather high magic anomalies so much that space time was altered and i ended up at Wansdyke which is where i wild camped the night. I also done a Vango F10 Helium review
Avebury is a henge monument containing three stone circles, around the village of Avebury. it is said its largest megalithic stone circle in the world but there could be larger ones we do not know about. It is not possible to date or know how much its been altered over time. The purpose of of it is unknown.
Like Hadrian’s Wall, Offa’s Dyke and the Antonine Wall Wansdyke is in the West Country south west England. It is the most mysterious of them all. Maybe early medieval defensive linear earthworks. 35 miles through the countryside of Wiltshire and Somerset, this large defensive earthwork was built some 20 to 120 years after the Romans had left Britain. Set to a east-to-west alignment, it is thought that whoever built the dyke was defending themselves against invaders from the north. it is thought that it was built by the native Britons as a defensive measure against the Anglo-Saxons. Battle of Mons Badonicus. In this battle the native Britons, supposedly led by King Arthur himself, hit a decisive blow against the Anglo-Saxons. Less popular hypothesis, is that the wall was built by the Romans themselves as a defensive measure against local Britons. Another theory behind Wansdyke was that it was built by the West Saxons to stop the pesky Britons from trying to retake their lands
