Oh what a difference a day makes! This was the view through the car windscreen waiting for everyone to arrive. Starting from High Down as a massive storm moved in over Dartmoor. Very heavy rain at times and a wind as strong as I can remember.
We took the track down to the River Lyd
Then up to...
...the abandoned Doetor farm.
Next up through the clitter to the top of...
...Doe Tor
This view across to Brat Tor as the rain swirled all around.
Down across the Doetor Brook to the derelict Tinner's cottage.
Where stopped for refreshment.
Next up through the old mine workings to Dick's Well.
Back down on the track (which today was awash with water) between Arms Tor and Brat Tor. Standing up was difficult because of the wind!
To the bridge across the River Lyd. The stepping stones here are submerged but on a normal day you can walk across.
On to the Mary Tavy Inn where the food and service were excellent.
With Jon, Bill, Ian and Anne.
