Fellow go4awalkers who have already walked, climbed, summited & bagged Hay Bluff

Dale Tyler walked up on August 19th, 2017 [from/via/route] Carpark by the stone circle (what's left of it!) [weather] Blooming windy and stinging rain on the top-lovely lower down - Very friendly horses on the road to Llanthony

Alan Smith climbed on March 23rd, 2017 [from/via/route] Gospel pass [with] Matthew

Colin Egan bagged during May, 2015 [with] My wife Faith

Christina Lander hiked on March 18th, 2015 [from/via/route] Capel-y-ffin - Black Mountain (South Top) - Black Mountain - Hay Bluff - Gospel Pass - Twmpa - Rhos Dirion - Twyn Talycefn - Chwarel y Fan - Capel-y-ffin [with] Dick [weather] Dry with sunny spells

Mark Hartshorne summited on September 7th, 2014 [from/via/route] Walk po176. My first go4awalk route. Capel-y-Ffin, steep climb in hot sun through bracken but on a clear path to Offa's Dyke and Black Mountain South Top. On to the main top and then Hay Bluff for lunch. Down to Gospel Pass and up t'other side to climax on Twmpa (which sounds better than the English version). Then the long walk down the ridge and back to Capel-y-Ffin. [with] Flash [weather] Sunny and warm throughout - Glorious weather for walking. Few people on the way up but plenty on Offa's Dyke, Hay Bluff and Twmpa. Only two people on the walk back. Flash didn't know what to make of the hill ponies but got used to them after a while. Lots of butterflies - and also pursued by persistent small bees or hoverflies along Offa's Dyke. Flash met another dog called Flash. Also a border collie - well a collie cross. Amazing co-incidence. 5 hours including about 30 minutes for stops.

Tim Buckley conquered on September 14th, 2013 [from/via/route] po116 Black Mountains & Rhos Dirion, circular walk. [with] Solo walk. [weather] Sunny spells. - Arrived here at 3.36pm on the return leg back to Gospel Pass car park. Met I guy who was walking the Offa's Dyke path - lucky man.

David Lane scaled on December 4th, 2009 [with] Kelly, Derek Saul (Kelly's Brother-in-law) Nathan Saul (Kelly's Nephew) and Alex Anderson (Kelly's Son-in-law).

Emma Cole, Paul Booth and Richard Penney have all walked, climbed & bagged Hay Bluff.
