Is Dartmoor a vast, barren wilderness of bottomless bogs plagued by unpredictable and sometimes extreme weather?
Nope.
I can run across it comfortably in 5 hours. Every inch has had some human attention at some point. Every stream and hill has a name. Bogs are for running through. The weather is no more unpredictable than anywhere else. It rarely snows. Check the Dartmoor Rescue call-out logs to see how often folk come to grief
on the moor.
It is however, a small fragile gem sometimes hauntingly beautiful with a subtle charm not easily caught on canvas or camera.
Thought the icicle wind chimes were cool......................
indeed, my friend, indeed

ReplyDeleteLooks as if Spook likes it too.
ReplyDeleteHe hates stopping for photos though. He's got the 'get a move on, I'm freezing my cods off here' look.
