I could not miss the opportunity of a clear sky on a Wolf moon so a friend and I went for a walk up Wolfscote Hill from Heathcote. Only 5 miles in total and no headtorch required.

There was no wind whatsoever and when we got to the TP we both took our gloves off as we were warm. We found this rather strange as we sat, taking in the 360 degree views. We then realised that the warmth was coming from the limestone pavement around the summit that had been basking in the sun all day. As soon as we dropped down and below the limestone it was gloves back on as it was chilly.

When we got back to the car the windscreen had a layer of frost on it and Heathcote Mere a thin layer of ice.

Looking forward to the Snow Moon on February 16th!
