Ringing Roger of Edale

What a fantastic start to the weekend. Guided to friends up onto Ringing Roger on Friday night in some testing conditions. We arrived in the car park at Edale to receive a good dose of heavy rain and gusting winds.

So head torches on we headed up into Edale village and past the Nags head pub.

Didn't look this bright when we passed.

So onwards and upwards. The point of the exercise was to gain better navigation skills at night for the guys, it was certainly going to be testing.

The wind was gusting at about 30-40 on the way up with thick fog at around 400m not without the driving rain just to add to the mix.

John and Tom on top of Ringing Roger, very happy with there combined efforts.

So, off too the top of Roger then back down the track to the famous Nags Head for a jug of ale.

Fantastic night out with lots of knowledge gained along the way, so until next time, which should be Friday 26th Feb. 

Keep watching.
