22 of us set off from New Mill. It was forecast to be another hot sunny day, fortunately there was a cool breeze and cloud cover later in the walk. We managed to find nice shady trees for both the coffee and lunch stops. The route was not well walked and overgrown in places, at one point the bracken was at head height and finding the path was a challenge. I managed to extend the 9 mile walk to 9.5 miles by taking a wrong turn but other than that all went well. Replenishment fluid was taken at the Wortley Men’s Club.
