I've only ever camped at one location on Dartmoor. Recommended to me by a teacher many years ago; Lucky Tor, any of you folks stayed there? It's stayed a special place for me in my mind, many fond memories! As kids we were dropped off at Dartmeet, and left on our own, sometimes for up to a week camping at and around lucky tor, we had superb times! We spent some time up there and seen some funny things! I would have been happy with seeing a beast of Dartmoor at that age but we had spontaneous rock climbers of the Tor itself, a couple of nudist archers walk through camp and then one other time another couple pitched up 100m from our tent, but they still kept us awake with their nightly activities Thats wasnt all in one visit thank god.
I have a online gallery on my website of Lucky Tor, it's from many years ago, but probably the most fun visit I had:

Here is another gallery of Lucky Tor (2004 visit), just myself and girlfriend Claire:

This was Claire's first time camping out on the moors, and I had to take here there in the Winter Theres some great photography in that last gallery (thanks to Claire) If anyone wants the images in full-resolution, PM me and I'll email them to you
I think this community is going to be a superb resource for me! Find new info on kit and places to stay. Cant wait to learn more! So Lucky Tor anyone?..
