Sunday 6th August 2017 High Willhays

A cool fresh day and round to the military road north of Okehampton. Left to right Rowtor, West Mill Tor and Yes Tor


Up the track to Row Tor - West Mill Tor in the distance.

Looking south west with Oke Tor and Steeperton Tor in the distance.

The old rifle butts with the target railway in the middle distance.



The large metal target in the distance

The railway used to move the target behind the bank.

The engine shed


Down to New Bridge with the Black-a-ven Brook

Up to East Mill Tor.

Belstone Tor in the middle distance

And, the view the other way to Yes Tor

Then along the military track for a while to Dinger Tor - High Willhays in the distance and...

....Great Kneeset and Fur Tor to the south. A few spots of rain at this point.

Up to the High Willhays - the highest point on Dartmoor and I was surprised to have it to myself on a Sunday morning in August.

On Yes Tor looking back to High Willhays

Across to West Mill Tor, Belstone Tor and Cosdon Hill.

Down the track to the ford with West Mill Tor in the distance.
