Thanks everyone. The next lot of pics should be taken with a brand new camera when I finally get round to buying it!

LMAO yeah I need to get myself one of those - I can think of a thousand uses for it haha!

Yes Gaz it was mighty cold while walking around, I think the next time I am back down there it needs to be in the summer. Last time it was glorious sunshine and we did the whole 15miles around all of the reservoirs - not this time lol! :rain:

No one should come up here with out giving me a shout first

If you go up on a sunday night, you can have a good blast to the top of howden res if you go straight on at the roundabout where it says road closed

 

[Gazeratti]

Only ever walked halfway round it, some good roads hidden not too far from there

Get the last one entered for the photo comp, you have my vote on that one

Sorry mate I honestly didn't realise it was your area! Will do in the future don't worry mate, would be good to meet up.

Yeah I was very tempted to pop up anyways, it was very quiet only thing that stopped me was a 'landslide' sign which I didn't know if it was genuine or not. Didn't fancy getting a red face and having to turn round halfway along.

The last one was in the first car park along the side of Ladybower. When you turn off Snakes Pass towards Derwent Dam and the visitor centre it is on the right, after the first cattle grid. I may have to pop down mid-week and get a better position when it is even quieter.

Yeah I stumbled upon Strines (I think) when I took a detour on the way there. Had some fun but I had no idea where the road was going lol!

 

[Gazeratti]

lol the strines are quiet tricky, plus there bamford moor and then roads out to chatsworth house and beyond you could go for miles on twisty if you know where to look lol

This the one?

Damn that view is amazing, I love the area around Ladybower whatever time of year it always looks so good.

I'm thinking that spot alone requires a gathering
