It was two years ago and a few of us decided to run up Moel Famau and back for something to do. It a relatively mild Spring morning: 7C ish with breaking sun.
We parked at the end of the path and jumped out in shorts, light jacket and boots, where we were joined by the full on day-tripping hiking brigade, all lined up.
Now, we're all grown men who are relatively fit and experienced at tabbing, so we were set back when they decided to come over and question us...
... ,well lecture us, over our preparations and apparent foolishness. One even said (paraphrased), "You'll only ruin our experience with your stupidity." Aye?
"It's not Snowdon mate, it's a hill that children walk up. Have a bloody nice day." Anyway, off we went up into the low cloud for the run, which is just over six km.
I really can't understand the whole mentality that it's their path and nobody else should be able to enjoy it.
