Welsh Bagging Lists

I have just come a cross an excellent list of all of the Welsh Hewitts (Hills over 2000 feet with at least 30 metres drop on all sides) and Marilyns (Hills of any height with at least 150 metres drop on all sides). The list, compiled by Alan Dawson, can be found at http://bubl.ac.uk/org/tacit/tables/wales/.

For those of you who fancy reading about these hills before you set off, I can recommend Graham Uney's superb 'The High Summits of Wales - A guide to walking the Welsh Hewitts'.

Grahams book is divided into two sections. The first section is a complete guide to the Welsh Hewitts, range by range, hill by hill. The second section is the story of Grahams successful bid to walk them all in one go in the summer of '98. It's a helluva story. You can find a link to the book at Amazon on the right of this page.
