I used to work as a trail guide in the Cambrian mountains and Elan valley, as well as the Brecon Beacons and I can’t get over how much the Strata Florida and Claerwen dam tracks have changed in 15yrs. The Strata Florida especially so, with many little detours deviating from the original ROW. BTW I’ve seen Landy’s do the bomb hole when it’s half full of water and running down the rock face like a waterfall. You guys were fortunate doing it in perfect conditions, but it’s all down to tyre pressures and tow bars. I guess your Landy owners bottled it in fear of their halfshafts and body damage. Great truck BTW, a real beast and it towed that other truck a piece of piss. Your boy won’t ever forget that trip, he obviously loved it and he’ll remember it for life.
