Ten Tors

It's that time of year again when every other weekend is given over to training groups for the annual Ten Tors event (link opposite)

A bright and cool weekend made for a gentle introduction to Dartmoor for the teams who havn't done the event before and a good start to the navigation, teamskills and campcraft training.
My 35 mile team had a cracking day. This was taken as they approached Higher Hartor










This was taken a bit later on from Gutter Tor at about the halfway point.










Got a good run in by keeping ahead of them and checkpointing. Spook was much taken by the squaddies doing an exercise on the top of the tor.

    On a good day it's fantastic but it can get a bit interesting when the weather turns nasty.
