Dovestone Tor Meet

Hoping to see lots of Rucksackers at Dovestone Tor (SK197898) this Saturday (22 June). If you haven’t been before, best to park at Cut Throat Bridge on A57, though it does get busy. The old car parking near Strines Inn is apparently closed. Aim is to climb/boulder/etc, soak up the cloud and later adjourn to a place that sells beer. If anyone wants a lift and can get to Glossop Saturday morning, I’ll be leaving around 7.30am. Mobile 07946 324956.
