  Western Edale Circuit The forecast was for low-level cloud/mist and possibly clear tops so we abandoned our original plan to do the "Frisky Cows" walk from Castleton. We'll definitely save that for another day. An obvious alternative was to walk from Mam Tor and over Rushup Edge, and then see where we went to from there. On further reflection, starting from the Mam Tor car park would mean that the final stretch of the walk would be uphill so we took the sensible option of starting from Edale and having a coffee in The Penny Pot . As with our walk last Friday, we walked up to Hollins Cross. Although the mist was blowing in and out, we still managed to have some typical views. On the way up to Hollins Cross- Grindslow Knoll in the background At Hollins Cross we turned right rather than left as we had last week. As we made our way up towards Mam Tor it became more and more misty. Into the mist on Mam Tor Having walked over Rushup Edge we stopped at the junction of the path...

  Cutthroat Bridge, Derwent Edge and Strines Moor The forecast was fair- no significant rain predicted- and we thought that it was worth going a little further afield than we had recently. After a couple of minutes, we agreed that Cutthroat Bridge, along Derwent Edge and over to Strines would be a good walk. We hadn't remembered that we'd started the year with much the same walk on the New Year's Bank Holiday , so there was a nice symmetry to the choice! We had some lovely low, winter's light but as it was a little chilly, not many pictures were taken. Ladybower and Win Hill in the background Bamford Edge to the left of Jacinta The Edale Skyline and Kinder Plateau all the way to Fairbrook Naze The Cakes of Bread We stopped by the Strines Inn for a hot drink and to eat our packed lunches surreptitiously... An enjoyable winter walk of 10.2 miles with 470m ascent.

 The Great Ridge, Lose Hill and Kinder The forecast was for a dry and sunny day and it certainly didn't disappoint. There was lovely sunshine all day and this only changed as the sun went down, just before 4pm and we were virtually back at the car. We made an early start- stopping for a coffee and a warm-up at the Penny Pot. Warmth at the Penny Pot We walked up, a pleasant walk under Cold Side (the landslipped side of Mam Tor) and up to Hollins Cross on The Great Ridge. Walking past Cold Side. Back Tor and Lose Hill in the sun ahead Arriving at Hollins Cross. Edale, Kinder and Grindslow Knoll in the background We had brilliant views all around, including back to Edale, across to Kinder and Grindslow Knoll, and to Mam Tor. Mam Tor, with the closed road below We then made our way to Lose Hill which is a great landmark. It felt easier going up this side than the other and it was a pleasant walk. We stopped for a snack at Lose Hill and made our way down to the outskirts of Hope an...
