...first up to the quarry...
...then around to Little Pew Tor and a there was little bit of sunshine on North Hessary Tor.
I headed over to the right hand side of Pew Tor.
Below to my right there was sunshine lighting up King Tor....
...and also on Barn Hill Rocks ahead.
I went down to the track which goes around Heckwood Tor. More sunshine here and I like the contrast with Great Mis Tor in the background.
Over below Swell Tor the sun was still there - but that was the end of it!
I followed the track around Heckwood Tor. In the centre is a perfectly crafted slab of granite which was never used.
Ahead Vixen Tor....
To which the public are no longer allowed - all the more naff is the graffiti the land owner has painted on the granite wall which says 'no public access'
On to the disused quarry at Merrivale.
Then up to Great Staple Tor - in the foreground is the track used to remove the granite from the hill.
The ridge line along to Middle Staple Tor...
...and Roos Tor the other way.
Across to Brent Tor
Down to the dewpond and up to..
Cox Tor.
Looking back to Roos Tor, Great Mis Tor and Great Staple Tor.
The route back to Pew Tor and Pork Hill car park below - the ferns have all died off.
Windy Post and the Bullseye stone.
Pew Tor Ahead.
Looking down to the start.
I was lucky a few minutes after finishing the rain came down - in abundance.
