After an early start and watching the sunrise over Minehead harbour  I commence the day's hike by following a recommended   zig-zag pathway ascending higher and higher thru the woods for North Hill---I have a relatively good  guide booklet and my OS map for reference---I do not follow the rugged pathway following advise but instead use the route recommended  alternative route  because  the rugged route  at this point is  apparently  extremely steep and rough and can result in crawling on hands and knees on some of the early stages as it literally hugs the coast line---the Zig Zag path makes sense as I ascend thru the wood later emerging to be greeted by magnificent views as shown in subsequent videos---the weather is good--no rain, clear and blue skies, a light wind and  pure air filling my lungs---much needed  during this climb....I am eager to explore more of the South West Coastal Path
