Had planned to do a big one, up onto Beacon Batch and then over to Cheddar Gorge, doing a big loop. Unfortunately, lack of parking for the start point meant I ascended up a really steep, muddy waterfall. Was an adventure but once on the tops was rather windy and bleak. Plus point - nobody else was up for the challenge on that route so didn't see anybody until I reached the summit.
