Moel Famau and Hitler.

For the third time this year I climbed Moel Famau. By now I know the mountain pretty well, but today we reached the top via two new paths. The ascent is fairly straightforward along the edge of Frith mountain. Part of the route took alongside what looked like a Second World War air-raid shelter - it even had the classic 'Anderson' shape still clearly remaining. It begged the question as to why anyone would need an air-raid shelter half way up Moel Famau. It cannot have been anywhere near the top of Hitler's list of targets.

Not a good photograph; but the history of this building in the woods would be interesting.
