Tuesday 12th December 2017 - Bleak House

A very icy start with pedestrians obviously struggling on the untreated pavements in Tavistock. So very gently out to the Fox and Hounds.  Up to Nodden Gate then along King Wall to find....

King Way Cross.  You can just make out the Greek style cross at the base of the stone. Much more about the cross on Legendary Dartmoor

Then a loop around to cross the track and directly up to the higher level of the track.

Looking south with Great Links Tor on the left, Little Links Tor in the centre and Arms Tor on the right.

Over to Gren Tor and then on to Hunt Tor for the coffee break

The view from Hunt Tor to Great Links Tor

 From here directly south to the track leading to Bleak House with Green Tor behind where we met Anne and Stella who had missed the start of the walk.

Fur Tor just visible on the left. We took the track back past Dick's Well

Sharp Tor and Hare Tor

Brat Tor in the distance.

Down over Arms Tor to the ford below Nodden Gate. Lunch in the very busy Fox and Hounds where they had 37 for Christmas lunch. No delays and our food was served very quickly. With Bill, Peter, Charlie, Terry, Colin, Amber, Stella and Anne.
