Lots of walking stuff

Bleaklow 2nd October 2011

Sunday afternoon after a taxi run to Manchester.

Parked up at Snake summit and walked the Pennine Way up to Bleaklow Head. The weather was  cloudy  with a bit of rain. I could imagine in poor weather this would be a grim place. The peat groughs along the path looked pretty soggy, so I stuck to the path. Onceat the summit there is a large cairn with a pole in the middle. However, you don;t have to wander far from this before it is out of site - an easy place to get lost.



Great view of the northern edge of Kinder filling the horizon - I was walking the full length of that a couple of months ago

I would like to come back here for a full day and allow some time to have a look for the Superfortress wreck.

About 5 miles OS OL1 Dark peak
