WW 23rd March 2016
Yes, another beautiful clear, dry, starlit evening - with a full, full moon. Perfect conditions to spot Iridium 55 streaking across the sky. Someone was so excited at the prospect of yet another lovely walk that they completely overshot the start. So out from the quarry and in the moonlight up to Crockern. Where a star in the south was spotted heading steadily upwards. So we sped off, over the stile to Littaford to spot the flare. Onwards to Longaford for the traditional traverse. Down, down to the amazing new weir for a real treat; the opportunity to flood Plymouth. Only a little cool work was needed to release the mighty Dart. It certainly made for a great strong shower this morning. A nice cuppa and up to Beardown. The track round the farm was as usual dry as dry. Will it ever rain again? And on to the PoW where crowds of Land Rovers were parked.
