Peak District: CHESHIRE - Shutlingsloe (8 miles)

Sunday, 25th May 2014

A forum meet up organised by Mark.  

A good walk but shame about the weather and the lack of visibility on the top of Shutlingsloe. 

We did manage to meet George Osborne though, who was out walking his dog. Met a few new faces off the forum too.

The gang, ready for the off



Heading into the unknown!


Stunning pano shot of the views from the top!

Aye, we could see for, ooooh, literally feet all around!!

The other end of Shutlingsloe

Heading down under the murk

And now the top's cloud free! (typical!)


Bit of road walking alongside the beck

Aye, still no cloud now we're down here!



These were deer just grazing in the field

No walk is complete without mud
- particularly when the boardwalk is a few feet shorter than it should be!



Shutlingsloe from yet another angle
(nope, still no cloud!)

Lovely walk through bluebell filled woodland


Migraine inducing waterproof jackets!

Trentabank Reservoir

We find lots of these in the woods
I think I'd like to do this walk again some day... in better weather!

Thanks for looking 😊
