Sion Britton walked up on December 12th, 2020 [from/via/route] Fan y Big o Blaen y Glyn Uchaf. [with] Rhiannon [weather] Showers & Cool.

Kimberley Gratton climbed on July 23rd, 2019 [from/via/route] I started off from Talybont Reservoir, going up NW on a signed track all the way to Allt Lwyd (this was VERY steep!) From there I went via the Cam Pica stone built beacon towards Waun Rydd, & then Gwaun Cerrig Lwydion. Finally heading to Bryn (Waun Rydd) & down back to Talybont Reservoir. [weather] Hot & Sunny - The path from Bryn back to Talybont Reservoir wasn't clear & not as pleasant as the rest of the walk. I would suggest going back the way you came.

Mary Norris has bagged [from/via/route] Walk po131, start point Blaen y Glyn carpark [with] Sue Davies and Betsie! [weather] Warm, dry & sunny, cool & windy in parts - Fab walk, best bit was the Diving Board on Fan y Big. Tough climb to start.

Christina Lander hiked on March 26th, 2014 [from/via/route] Upper Neuadd Reservoir - Craig Fan Ddu - Corn Du - Pen y Fan - Cribyn - Fan y Big - Upper Neuadd Reservoir [with] Dick & Suzanne [weather] Overcast but dry

David Price summited on September 29th, 2012 [from/via/route] Pencelli [with] Jean [weather] Fine

Robert Taylor-Marriott conquered on December 5th, 2012 [from/via/route] Route 46: Bwlch y Ddwyallt, Waun Rydd & Allt Lwyd (BWA). [with] Vince Wetton and Robert Taylor-Marriott [weather] Sunny, snow & cold

Tim Buckley scaled on November 23rd, 2013 [from/via/route] From the Blaen Y Glyn car park, via Craig Fan Ddu, WW2 bomber crash site, Carn Pica, Waun Rydd then Bwlch y Ddwyallt onto Fan Y Big then back to the CP [with] Solo Walk [weather] Freezing, bitter wind on prevailing paths, clear blue skies to the south & hill fog to the north. When clear it was a beautiful day. - The highlight was the WW2 Wellington bomber crash sight & memorial. I've been walking up here for years & never visited this site - well worth the effort, the memorial is well maintained & poppy wreathes tied to it. Amazingly there is considerable wreckage to be seen, nice to see that in 60 years souvenere hunters haven't stripped the site clear.
