    Surely one or two of them must have been normal?

    Only one or two; the rest looked liked snowmen/women by standing stone hill.

    Noticed the paths and trods are still water logged up here; its been 4 months since I've seen a solid trod; winter 2011-12 has seen the boggiest moors in years; Drought? Not in Calderdale!

    The weather forecast was right.....blizzard on Greave height.....miles from anywhere and the steady group bravely climb through horizontal ice and snow storms (look carefully and you can see it flying across the picture)
    Winter is nt giving up without a fight!

    More pictures....the medium paced group, lead by Ash, make their way up Turn Hill around the 12 mile mark; Trig then had to shout em back from nipping straight onto Shackleton Knoll, making sure they made the big descent back to Walshaw to complete the "horodiddle loop".
