Warm and very wet.  Out from the car park below Staple Tor  and across to the edge of Merivale quarry. Northwards following the wall and then down across the leat to the Blowing House. From here a direct line up to the cairns and over to the wall junction where we took our break. Across to the footpath which goes through Wedlake and then the steep climb up to Roos Tor. Along the ridge line and back to the cars. As we got back to the cars the rain stopped and the sky cleared. A longer walk than usual which meant we didn't arrive at the Dartmoor Inn at Merrivale until 10.25 - fortunately it was still open.

With Terry, Mike, Stella, Viv, Jon and Pete
