I was here last week, but ran out of daylight, before I got to this area.
Again, starting out from Upper Booth Farm, only this time, heading west, then north along the beginning of the Pennine Way. With a great deal of puff, climbed up the established route of Jacobs Ladder. This got me to the top of the Kinder Scout plateau. Then, all is at about the same height. There is a trig point on the western edge though, cemented on top of a fairly random rock. [included in these piccys] .
The reason I’m back here again though, is to navigate to the ‘woolpacks’. This is an area of huge weathered rocks, millions of years of wind an rain, making some very unusual forms. So many of them, remind me of Henry Moore sculptures. { I wonder if he ever came up here, a plagerised some of God’s work 🙂 }
