Foot bridge in Edale
Rod likes to lead the way so he can get in the photos.
Here he is again leading the way up Grindsbrook Clough
and here is Lee eating sweets. He never offered me one.
Falls at Grindsbrook
The final stretch is just slightly steeper
Looking down from the top. Lose Hill way off in the distance
Rod using what looks like a shoe to get a view
Heading north on Kinder Scout we followed this wide grough
It soon became much narrower than this so we decided to climb out and see where we were
A lot of leaping and zig zagging had to be done here to avoid some nasty bog. This also slowed us down considerably
Back down in one of the wide channels we were able to pick up the pace
Look at little Rod. Thats my jacket and I reminded him when he took a tumble in the peat
I now know we are not far from Kinder Downfall
Kinder Downfall. Where the water falls but then blows back over
Looking down at the falls
Our route continued along the Pennine Way by following the edge
Kinder Reservoir in the distance
Kinder Low in poor visibility
Rod likes to look away from the camera and into the distance as if to survey his land.
I choose to look windswept and tired

continuing down to Edale
