Had a nice quick getaway up on the hill Saturday night. Frosty morning breakfast.
Kinder plateau looking toward Loose Hill
Everything was frozen solid which meant you could walk lots of places where it is normally very boggy. Not grouses normal roost spot bottom right, also mountain hare poo.
Frozen waterfall
Red grouse at 10ft, think it had just woken up, this is a compact camera no long lens.
Typical flagged path made with flags from Lancashire mills. They are flown up by helicopter, reduces erosion enormously.
View back down into Edale Valley, I live in the strip of trees in the centre.
On the way down a small area of burnt heather. Traditional management a bit like miniature coppicing. It creates age range in the shrub layer and increases diversity.
