i do have to say that lane is a great one,
add the fog and the zero visabilty,
the pitch black darkness,
the obstacles we encountered,
the rain,

the fact that we met 12 other 4x4 who couldnt find there way out,
due to the visibility,
we led the way forward,
useing the laptop and the gps we knew the way out no matter what,
awesome bit of kit,

a truly great adventure and end to the first days laneing,
i loved every minute of this lane,
not one to be missed next time,

again big thanks to jon and nathan,
who helped us every step of the way,

i believe so mikeo,
thats what the sign said,

although the sign could have been last years sign,
pehaps it will be closed for good,

maybe we could find out for the next trip ?

Bad news I did some quick research Sarn Helen is now closed all year the sign you saw was the old seasonal TRO, and has now been replaced with a restricted byway status change.

also this has happened to the GAP road it would appear as this also is now a restricted byway lost forever are the vehicle rights

great find there mikeo,

unfortunately they should sort there signs out then,
as we didnt see any other signs apart from the one which ended that day and said that it re opened next march ?
surley if they change the rules they should put signs up in the entrance to said lane so that everyone can see ?
stupid people,

we even met some of the locals 4x4 that morning at mc donalds,
who told us that this was the last time it was open till 12 pm,
the last day ever,
so good job we did it before it got shut forever,

the sign was still in place when we drove the lane in clear view with the dates on it,
so i cant see any problem really,

obviously we will need to check again before the next trip as it was such a good lane,
i would defo drive it again if it was open,

Yeah odd one that mate... i'm pretty sure the sign even had which year it was relating to aswell, but then again I might be mistaken. It would be a real shame if its gone for ever, I had plenty of time to look at the fog as Lori drove most of it, and according to Yogi made a better job of driving it than me!! Cheeeky bugger!

At least I didn't try and nick my own car... stupid! :P
