Family Walk
November's family walk was a fairly local affair. Four children
plus four adults set out from the Torrs Riverside Park car park in Hague
Bar near New Mills on a misty day.For the first time on record, girls
outnumbered boys (counting the big ones as well). We crossed Strines
road and headed up the hill, past New Mills golf course and on to
Broadhurst Edge.Following the contours we stopped for lunch and the mist
cleared for the only time that day giving clear views of Kinder Scout.
The children played 'Blind Man's Tig', a cross between blind man's bluff
and tig with hats pulled down over their faces. The adults crept away
but were spotted escaping from the field.
We dropped down into New Mills and into the Torrs then over the
Millenium bridge and back along the river. Total distance about 5 miles.
