Lydia and I escaped to Dartmoor for a couple of days walking this week. Our first day although slightly damp, presented us with clear walking weather with lovely views. After about 14km we found a good spot to wild camp near Kit Rocks , not far from the head of the East Dart River. Wind and rain during the night persisted into the next day and we awoke in a cloud with very poor visibility. We used the range markers as a hand rail to guide us back to Princetown, but just and hour away from the car, the heavens opened and half an hour of rain left us wet through. All good fun though, and cheesy chips at the Fox Tor Cafe soon had us back on equilibrium!
