Wednesday 28th January Great Links Tor

The weather forecast was for strong winds, heavy showers and a drop in temperature and that's exactly what happened.

Setting off from High Down,  and across to Nodden Gate.

Up to Great Nodden...


...and then down again.


looking back at Great Nodden.

A short break here for a hot drink and then we took the direct route up to....

...Gren Tor. Heavy rain at this point and very strong winds.

A little bit of sleet as we headed over to Hunt Tor before cutting across to the main track. Both Pete and Terry had their rucksack covers removed by the strong wind!

Then on to Great Links Tor as the rain and sleet eased.

Another short break on Great Links Tor. Looking across to Sharp Tor and Hare Tor.

Down past Arms Tor and over the stepping stones before returning to the cars after a very invigorating walk.

An excellent lunch in the Dartmoor Inn. With Ian, Jon, Terry, Pete and for the first time Mike. Jane joined us for lunch.

  1. Great photos! I don't know if I would have the stamina to go out in such weather, I admire you and your company!
