It was dull but it didn't rain and very wet under foot! The Gutter Tor car park was full with the military. 

We headed out up the track and the military group ahead of us turned to the right as we turned off to the left.

Towards Combeshead Tor. There are lots of old mine workings in this area. Jon found an adit.

The view towards Sheeps Tor

A very boggy patch below the stream.


To the stone row....

...where Jon demonstrated the magical nature of the reversal stone.

Then up to Combeshead Tor for the coffee break and Brenda pulled out a very old letterbox from under the rock.

Down to the magnificent Cuckoo Rock...

...and off across the stream to find two potato caves.

Down through Deancombe and up the steeper slope past the Roughtor Plantations which had been thinned out a bit and a short walk back to the start.

Lunch in the very busy Royal Oak. With Brenda, Ann, Jane, Jon and Bill
