Had trot along Howden this morning all the way to Wainstones and back, Lovely when I left the house so thought I'd see loads of HPMers out reccieing so it would be quite the social run, by the time I was up there it was thick clag and quite cool, Swainshead was very wet underfoot, Bleaklow was..well..Bleaklow! finally spotted another human soul at Wainstones but they were just walkers, so I turned round and returned by the Secret route only to bump in to my Neighbour and his team from Dark Peak Mohogany ridge, after much ribbing about and sandbagging about us both being lost they set off for Bleaklow and I to the Stones. I could see no one else so took a direct bearing for the fun of it and ran straight to Swains head were I picked up the next team from "No Sheep till Buxton"
As I got to the turn off cairn for Roundhill i met the 3rd team of the day "The Equine behind..." an all ladies team.
Couldn't see any one else along the ridge so dropped off early, there were plenty of fell shoe prints out there and even more dams since the last time I went out last week.
Thought there would have been more teams out though?
