Dartmoor: Broad Amicombe Hole, Great Kneeset and Little Kneeset (12.17 miles)

Great Kneeset Black & White

This walk had been in the planning for a long time, and the main reason why we (Paul Buck, Tim Jenkinson and I) hadn't done it before was due to the weather conditions; impassable rivers, for example. But a weekend in January 2020 was forecast full sun so we took the opportunity to venture out to High Down car park to continue this adventure.

Dartmoor: The Tors on Bridestowe and Sourton Common (south)

Icicle, Great Links Tor

With the likelihood of snow appearing on the high parts of Dartmoor, as guaranteed by the Met Office, I was keen to see it. Well, with all respects, predicting the weather is difficult, especially for Dartmoor, but the so-called snow didn't happen, the only evidence on the whole walk was the lightest dusting at the highest point of the walk.

Dartmoor: The Tors out of Nodden Gate

Chat Tor

After a short break from blogging I am now, hopefully, back into the swing of things because taking a break could lead to forgetting the walks I had done prior which means no bag! This time we started at the Fox and Hounds, crossed the Lyd and started the ascent up onto Arms Tor. I tried to do it in one go: I nearly succeeded but let's just say that I was being thoughtful to my companions who perhaps weren't as keen as me regarding 'racing'.
