Latest Walk - 20 Miles of Peak District Edges

 
 
 

We left Geordie's car at Baslow Edge and continued in mine to Derwent Dam. The plan was to fit in a load of the Peak District edges in one long day. Our route took us to many interesting rock formations and along Derwent Edge, Stanage Edge, Burbage Rocks, Froggatt Edge, Curbar Edge and Baslow Edge. It wasn't a particularly strenuous route as we spent the majority of our time on flat paths. What we underestimated was the foot ache. After 15 miles we described it to be like having the bottoms of our feet hit with a hammer. The afternoon coffee break at the Longshaw estate was very comforting so we insisted not to stay there long.

The morning started out very cloudy but brightened up considerably as the day went on. The wind was consistantly strong throughout though.
