First little bit of Wye for 2012!

Not hugely much to say about this one really... supposed to be kayaking, but I wasn't feeling well enough to want to sit in a boat all day, so instead went for a short walk from Rhayader down the to Elan confluence (then slept in the car until the others returned).

cold ground!

Crossing the Elan is a ridiculously wobbly footbridge, which actually made me feel seasick - this is a very rare thing!

On Sunday the Usk looked low and I didn't fancy it (the middle usk isn't my favourite bit of river, for whatever reason), so we went for a walk at the other end of Talybont reservoir instead, having spotted a waterfall symbol on the map.

Caerfanell falls

We wandered around forest tracks near the falls for a bit, then headed back to the others at Llangynidr.
