Wednesday Evening 31st August - Great Links Tor

Ten of us for the evening walk from High Down. No forecast of rain for the evening but looking west it didn't look like we would avoid it.

Down to the stepping stones before taking the steep track up to....

...Brat Tor

The view towards Hare Tor...

...and the other way with Great Links in the distance.

From here it was across to the main track and on to Dick's Well before heading up to Great Links. Tussocky underfoot for a while and lots of low cloud too. Coffee break on top and always surprising how quickly you can feel the cold. Down to Little Links Tor and then down to the River Lyd to follow it back to the stepping stones.

On to the pub - but they were all closed.  The Dartmoor Inn, the Mary Tavy Inn and the Trout and Tipple and this is in August! So we had to settle for Weathespoons in Tavistock, at least the beer is cheaper. Closed pubs are going be a problem going into the winter months.
