WW 3rd October 2018
Now just what happened there? Blue, blue, blue sky all day, perfect weather for a double sighting. But no, down came the Dartmoor mist and all went grey. Out from the quarry car park and up by the farm. Gently up to the row of tors and the traverse of Longaford. No chance of seeing anything at all, but no, luckily we had our expert ISS spotter with us and over it soared without a star in the sky. We managed to find some tussocks on the way to the leat take off and the perfect spot for a cuppa. The long and winding leat took us down to a surprisingly very un-muddy Beardown Farm and the lumpy path. Straight to the Chesterfields for a cooling jar on rather a warm evening.
