concentrating mainly on the "drops" furthest away from Hayfield (Grindsbrook, Lady Booth, Jaggers, Crookstone and Blackden - maybe substitute Fair Brook for Grindsbrook...)
I certainly won't manage the whole thing though!
Just me atm, but all welcome...
Where were you thinking of setting off from Daz. Was planning on a long hilly trip on Thurs/Fri myselfOriginally Posted by DazTheSlug

probably going to start/finish in Edale, although Snake Inn is a possibility...
I could well be up for this if you don't mind me tagging along.
Layby just beyond Snake inn (sheffield side) is better for me plus easier/cheaper parking 8.30 ish?
Don't see a problem if Nik wants to come?
no problemo - more the merrier
main factor for others will probably be putting up with my "steady" pace
Sounds like a plan!
Fair Brook looks an obvious first ascent,
then (since I'm NOT attempting the whole thing!) I guess we'll be crossing The Plateau Itselfto the Edale side, and picking up the KK route at Druid's Stone?
(maybe throw in a cheeky "bonus" drop down Grindsbrook and back up Golden Clough or Ollerbrook Clough?)

How long did you want to be out? I'll take you on a guided tour if you like. 5+ climbs of the plateaux? picking the best bits of course slow and long suits me.
