Alternating swirling mist with no visibility and then sunshine with distant views was the weather for most of the walk. Cool fresh winds and wet under foot.From the car park we took the road to Lower Godsworthy farm and the track past Higher Godsworthy farm. At both farms we were surrounded by uncontrolled, apparently crazy barking dogs with knashing teeth who didn't seem at all happy to let us pass through!
Out on to the moor below Cox Tor and up to the dew pond. It was at this point, after a senior moment, that Roger suddenly realised where he was! Then on to Roos Tor.
From here we took the track to the restored stone circle.
Through the swirling mist to find the Standing stone with bullet marks from firing practise during the Second World War and then up to White Tor.
Finally down to the track past Stephen's Grave where Bud and Chris had been about an hour before us and then to the Peter Tavy Inn for lunch.
On the walk today Charlie, Colin, Paul, Roger and Brian. In the pub Amber, Chris and Bud.
