The Austria Crew* met today for a lovely walk in mostly sunny weather, just clouding over in the afternoon. We left Eyam carpark at 9am, returning at 4pm... quite a walk for a winter day. We weren't very fast, but there was a lot of mud and a lot of up! This view shows Bamford Edge and the whole of Stanage Edge, and out of shot we could also see Higgar Tor, Millstone Edge, Froggatt and Curbar Edges and Baslow Edge. Amazing!

I could've done with a bit more sleep last night but I was too excited, Steve and I have booked 10 days on the Costa Blanca for six weeks time. Activity partners has resumed.
