This one walk has haunted me for a long time, I’ve always settled that it’s too much and it’s not for me.
Well this looming date made us think maybe we should try it before I’m back to square one mobility again, and I’m so glad we did it!!
The start did not look good, not only was visibility bad but my nemesis of steps loomed. So we opted to stop and rest as many times as needed.
As we reached the top, we saw snatches of clearing air, and views coming our way, worth the climb. We ate half way up, to help with the resting period.
Once up it’s a lovely wide ridge walk, we met some amazing people along the way. So nice to stop and chat and soak in the countryside.
Instead of coming straight down we opted to go to Back Tor as well. Mindful that in a few weeks I’ll be back on crutches.
So many cairns built, we built our own below too.
Mr Moon stood on deadly rocks with huge drops, the photo dies not do it justice.
We ended the entire Ridgeway by going onto Lose hill. Probably painwise I shouldn’t of done, but ego spurred me on!!
A huge rest and picnic here was thoroughly enjoyed. Again surrounded by like minded happy friendly people, makes it all worth while. What an epic day.
