>>649711I was camping with a friend around Snowdonia in Wales.
There's plenty of campsites around but we decided to camp wherever because fuck paying for ground to sleep on.
We found a good spot, fairly flat but raised up on a forested hillside far enough from the path to not attract attention. It was in the midst of a large number of huge rocks that had obviously fallen from the mountainside above in days gone by (think 6x6x6m cubes with trees on top). There was sort of a cave/overhang at the back where we could have a fire. We had a good view over a river (for water) and a lake.
We set up the tent and laid our gear out, set our raincoats to dry etc. It was near the end of the day, clear sky, getting dark but not dark enough to sit down and start a fire to cook food.
To fill the time we decided to go up the hill and take in the views. It was a bit of a scramble but it was worth it. We sat on an outcrop and watched the sun sink behind the hills.
After about half an hour we went down, taking a different route to the one we took going up, sometimes having to jump from boulder to boulder and over fallen trees.
On one of these levels we found a natural, squareish passage going back into darkness. It was tall enough for a man to stand in and touch the ceiling with his hand outstretched and about as wide as it was tall.
My friend insisted we explore a little, even though we didn't have torches; we fumbled around in the darkness (the sun had disappeared by now) and eventually found the end of the passage about 5-6 meters in. It ended abruptly and sitting at the end facing outwards the way we came in was a dilapidated office chair. It looked old, perhaps 1970s vintage. It was heavy and we were in a fairly remote area. Coming across it was a bit of a surprise.
Not sure if spoopy or not but I still wonder who it was who hauled it up the hillside and into that passage to sit and look out at the mountains.
