Not far from the start at Wildboarclough I wasn't feeling over enthusiastic. mostly due to my legs being tired from already doing a meaty walk today.
Following a faint track across the fields at Higher Nabbs
At Oakenclough I followed this road but I had missed the gate which is just to the right off the picture and behind the trees. Fool
This photo is taken from my accidental detour. Shutlingsloe is the obvious hill.
What's it doing right over there? I'm walking in the wrong direction!
I followed this path off of High Moor and onto Quiet Lane
When I got to Macclesfield Forest I followed the well marked signs for Shutlingsloe
Continuing up through Macclesfield Forest
Heading up a path on High Moor
Nearly there. Just a short but steep climb
Last few steps
The top of Shutlingsloe
A nice time of the day to be up somewhere high. The view was great and a welcome change from Bleaklow
Looking down to Wildboarclough and beyond
