Pathfinder

Rug Rat Mk2 is flexing his skills at pathfinding on the bonsai mountain and in the spirit of solidarity 

where one boldly goes then the rest of us follow. This route has been done once before by yours truly but this was years ago, BC (before children) in fact. Its a tortuous slog near vertical in places 

which is not helped by having K9s charging front to rear making sure all of us were keeping together.

The target was this ledge which we failed to get to on account that in the 9 years since I trod this trail the gorse bushes have grown waist height and were more determined that we shall not pass than were were to.
