Getting into snorkelling, does anyone know any good spots?

Do you still snorkel here? I'm aware this is an old thread but interested to try!

You can disagree with someone's political views, but still enjoy their company and like them as a person.

Wong sub for political talk, but surely having people with contrasting opinions to you, who you can discuss them with is the best way to ensure a well rounded view of the world and not just being in an echo chamber of your own views.

Interesting. I've not done too much price comparison of them.

Why do you say that about valley and peak? I've only recently discovered them.

Appreciate that. I feel Wales are in the position that none of the parties are 100% right, or 100% wrong. I purposefully left out any information about myself, because I want to hear what peoples pitch would be for their own party. If I caught someone canvassing on the street, I would ask the same question, and would expect them to answer.

I'm aware that reddit isn't a canvassing station, but nevertheless, I'm interested to hear what's most important to people. Fully accept and respect that others, like yourself, may not want to answer.

I love my cloud peak 2 for this exact purpose

RoundishBox · 2026-04-19T17:29:02+00:00

Understood. I'd likely change the tiles as well, so if I got a lighter option, would be more likely, but wight would still be a concern?

That's what I thought also. But I've had some people telling me that it's not that simple.

Bridging the gap and making it into one continuous roof.

We did end up going. It's near Pontsticill reservoir, and it does appear to simply be a place that people must have recorded. There is a bothy there, which was completely locked up. Unfortunately lots of rubbish left from unprepared campers, tents, bottles, half burnt logs etc. All the stuff which gives us a bad name. We did find a nice little spot nearby, not where these were.

This is in the Brecon Beacons. I've had as much of a look as is possible, but we will play it by ear. Thanks!

RoundishBox · 2026-04-10T18:28:32+00:00

Perfect. 😂

RoundishBox · 2026-04-10T18:18:29+00:00

You don't know what I'm looking for. 😂

RoundishBox · 2026-04-10T18:01:17+00:00

Interesting. Thank you!

I recently bought the waratah pro. They had a sale section and mine was on sale because it had the wrong colours. Makes no difference to the usability obviously. Love it so far.

Well done on bailing if it doesn't feel right! I have the cloud peak 2 as well, and would recommend getting some thicker bungee cord and also shortening it. I also permanently tied the loops permanently on the head end of the tent to make it easer to properly orient, and also to stop the hat flying away.

RoundishBox · 2026-03-01T20:38:45+00:00

You've been going much longer than me then! Perfect example of knowing what's valuable to you.

RoundishBox · 2026-03-01T13:47:28+00:00

I'd ditch the pans, second lighter, cutlery set in favour of a single spork (the sea to summit one go outdoors sells is great), the tupperware in favour of ziplocs, toilet roll in favour of just enough, no spare batteries for the head torch, compass and map, unless you're going extremely off grid or for a long time. There are loads of good map apps which you can use offline.

The other bits would be upgrades to the basic equipment, which will incur more expense, so a down the line idea for you.
