1. That's the destination on the right.
2. Looking back at Calf Hey Reservoir.
3. The Sherpas have gone on ahead to strike camp at the peak.
4. The remains of an old weavers cottage, empty since the reservoir was built.
5. Life on the edge can be a trial.
6. Almost at the peak, and stone walls are in abundance as it was quarried just yards away.
7. Here we are, at the business end of the industry that once rules this region.
8. Not sure why they built these walls rather than just remove the ground to level the site.
9. After traversing the top of Musbury Heights we descended back down to reservoir.
10. Ravaged by the festive seasons weather the baubles look rather sad.

and with that it was time to return to the car, now that is another story, with snow still on the ground and an uphill slope, the front wheel drive proved to be a slip sliding experience. We had visions of having to rub two boy scouts together to create a spark to light a fire to put up the bat signal. We eventually managed to get out by reversing up the slope slowly, something to bear in mind next time
Really great photos Dave! That was quite a trek.

It was, and I have been up here a few times in bad weather, it was certainly hard, but when back down again there was a glow of satisfaction, although it could have been frostbite.

Enfield Wharf this morning in the cold misty winter sunlight.
Don't think the ducks wanted to test the water.

Are they actually nesting in that box Frank? Or is it just them being nosey?

Not sure about that Eric, but most probably something abominable.

I don't think they are nesting yet, but they are there quite a bit.
