More Gower mapping

So today I headed out to map the remainder of the tracks in Mill Wood. There are still a number of footpaths there unmapped - I've no idea if they are "official" or not, so I thought it best just to stick to the tracks for now.

Also I discovered a path from Penrice through to Oxwich Marsh, so I'll have to go back at some stage to add that one too.

The actual location of the road near Mill Wood still seems to be the subject of some conjecture, so each time I go down there I'll try to upload a new trace so that eventually it should be more obvious where it really is. Its a really nice place to go walking, so that I don't mind repeated visits. The one downside is the road though - today I met traffic coming the other way for the first time, not just one car either, but several convoys of cars so I think I won't try visiting again on a weekend in the Summer. I don't think my nerves can take it! :-)

I noticed that there are more bits of Reynoldston still to do as I headed home that way. Now that I have a track of that alternate route, I've been able to add the Police Station and correct where that road meets the main road, so that it comes out opposite the track from Mill Wood.
