Walk Report

It was a grim, grey and wet day as we set off up and onto Mam Tor and then along the Great Ridge to Lose Hill, passing several groups of DoE teenagers looking sorry for themselves. The descent off Lose Hill was treacherous and slow. We continued along the road to Hope and then via a very wet and slippery FP7 to Castleton. The rain would let off and the sun come out, only to be immediately replaced by another heavy shower. Slight change of plan so we trudged up the old road. marvelling at the shifts in the earth surface that are plain for all to see. Led by Ann Robinson, with Quentin Blagg, Jerzy Matuszevsky, Peter Whitehead, Brian, Steve Millward, Gareth Phillips, Karen and Chris Tennant and Dave Gosling (bringing up the rear).
