Came across this little trickling brook as we came out of the wood during our ascension...
A quick look over the road to Win Hill...
And a quick look to the right at the Ladybower Reservoir
But, alas, all too soon the weather changes on us...
Nothing around us except the heather...
Luckily the rain stopped (although the wind was howling through the wall we were sat against) enough for us to finda little corner to grab something to eat...Jack, as ever, looking hopeful...
The terrain around where we sat and ate was a tad rocky...
But the view over to Ladybower was worth it...
As we levelled up and headed over to the edge we kept coming across little brooks running through the heather...
Weather threatening as we look over to Ladybower as we got higher....
Then we eventually reached Bamford Edge and could see down over Bamford and the surrounding area...
Although it's hard to see, this is a view looking over towards Hope... A close look should reveal the Cement Works at Hope...
A look back at Ladybower and the A57, Win Hill to our left and Whinstone Lee Tor to the right of Ladybower, with the A57 bridge just visible...
Another view over Bamford and into the Hope Valley...
And again we find somewhere to eat that is sheltered from the wind...
And after something to eat, we decide to make our way back.. but we dont go back the way we came.. we find a route down from Bamford Edge through the rocks and take that...
Where we were stood...
A bit further down from Bmford Edge looking back at the Edge...
But still high enough over Ladybower to see quite a way...
And just to prove how windy it was on Bamford Edge, I took this video of Dave...
