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".

I heard Nipper is now going marshalling on Sunday and running a new drinks station at Lady Royd Farm - wonder if there will also be cake on the menu?
Fingers crossed there will be!
Should have been on the Mag7 Joey - Nipper brought along some of her home baked cake to share....Quote:

JD, yes I am injured, I know it is gutting. I won't bore you with the detail but I hope to be back in a couple of weeks, "God willing". I will take some cake to Ladyroyd farm though. Say hello, won't you. NipperQuote:

My neighbour Dawn has offered to partner Nipper at Ladyroyd; I going up there tomorrow with the water barrel and cups - wonder what treats nipper will be taking with her?
Cake?!?!
Poppyseed cake and some sundry surprise treats! On a first come first served basis. What a great day it will be, such balmy weather :)Quote:
