WW 7th October 2015


Six people and four dogs set off from the Fox and Hounds on a fine dry night. Turning left after the moor gate we ascended Great Nodden where the summit cairn was in need of a finishing touch.  
Dropping North then East we followed a stream, climbing to cross the former railway track and reach  the low silhouette of Gren Tor.
With clearing skies there were great views to the North West and upwards with stars in abundance.  Continuing up a well defined track brought us to Hunt Tor for coffee. Was the angled rock carved by hand, like a leaning gatepost or just a natural mimic?
The usual soggy ground Southwards  to cross the old railway track was followed by the path up Great Links Tor with talk of how to climb the main tor. 
Descent via Arms Tor  to the valley brought us  back to the pub with all the dogs and people accounted for.

You really do have to be there ...
