WW 24th August 2022

 

Better than likely all things considered.

On rather a misty mizzly evening out from Norsworthy, up past the blowing house to the always lovely Lethertor Bridge. Round and up the track and across by Kneaglesborough Mine to pick up Raddick Lane. Bumpily upward to the open moor. All misty and glowery to a very low Crazy Well Pool. Where to next? Well the plan was to go up to Cramber to enjoy a lovely sunset. So what to do? Up to Cramber to enjoy a lovely sunset of course - silly idea. So up and amazingly a hint of a sunset did appear. In fact two sunsets one in the NW and another one in the N - how about that! Down the sheep tracks to the metal bridges over Hart Tor Brook and the River Meavy. By Black Tor Falls and along the leat. Into what is left of the woods and down as the light steadily ebbed. Good weather for frogs and there they were - or was it one frog who kept hopping ahead to reappear? The well logged track back to Norsworthy is super muddy now - no matter. And on to the very comfortable Burrator Inn for a soothing pint.

Once again, one of those evenings which just appears in front of you.

You really do have to be there ...
