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

My pre summer solstice trip to Scotland June 2019.
Summer solstice countdown 08/June/2019 day 4
I camped on the best beach ever not far from the beach airport near Eoligarry. You can get the W32 from here to Castle bay the ferry port that sails to Oban on the main land but i am not going there i am going to CalMac Ferries Ardmhor to which the bus also passes and goes to. So got the W32 bus most the way to Ardmhor. Before that i was looking for my glasses which i lost the day before i thought i may have lost them at Saint Barr's Church and i was right i found them there the next day. While i was waiting for the ferry to Eriskay Ferry Terminal i charged as much of my gear as i could this is what called digital hoboing some may say digital nomad. The ferry to Eriskay coast £3.15 one way at the time of uploading this video. The bus stop in Eriskay is near the Ferry Terminal i cached the W17 / W16 bus going to Daliburgh there is the Post Office, the Co-op supermarket, Borrodale Hotel (public internet access available), Scottish Hydro Electric shop, Burnside Fish and Chips and filling station, and the thrift shop (charity shop), which sells tea, coffee and food. Wild camping is possible down on the sand dunes on the near by beach. I also saw a memorial commemorates the life and poetic works of Donald J. MacDonald, a Gaelic bàrd. There is also a statue of our lady of the isles with a holly spring. I found on the sand dunes what looks like a second world war bunker.
Cladh Hallan. It is significant as the only place in Great Britain where prehistoric mummies have been found. one of them a male who had died c. 1600 BC, and another a female who had died c. 1300 BC. (about the same time as King Tutankhamun of Egypt). tests revealed that both bodies had not been buried until about 1120 BC, and that the bodies had been preserved shortly after death in a peat bog for 6 to 18 months. The preserved bodies were then apparently retrieved from the bog and set up inside a dwelling, presumably having religious significance. Archaeologists do not know why the bodies were buried centuries later. they appear to have been put in the bog for the express purpose of preservation (whereas most bog bodies were simply interred in the bog), and unlike most bog bodies, their soft tissue was no longer preserved at the time of discovery.
I found some turtles of unknown origin on the beach my magnetometer picked up some high readings and i headed back in time seventy five million years in the past. I headed back to the presence for a healthy green tea and pot noodle.
