If you don't mind me asking, whereabouts did you cross the Sett? I lost the trod on the way down from Edale Cross. I crossed the Sett at the point where two walls meet at either side of the river and then took a diagonal line south westwards to a wire fence and followed this up to the path. Looking back I wasn't sure I'd got the correct/best line?
You cross the Sett at the stream junction - more or less SK080853 - the trod is pretty clear nowadays, and there's a checkpoint at the stream junction. Then you climb up the steep banking, and follow the trod up the other side to the stile.
