Grouse

Later in the afternoon the weather came in. The highlight was all the grouse that seemed to come out. They are so shy but I did manage to photograph one.

High Blakey Ridge

Eventually we saw High .Blakey Ridge in the distance. A huge day completed and only two to go

The path weaves it's way into the distance

Urra Moor

We then continued for a long time on Urra Moor. It was very pretty with the heather but rather windy and cold. We had a late lunch then began to walk on the former Rosedale Ironstone Railway track. It followed the Ferndale Moor. Although it was flat it was rather bleak. We did however have some lovely vistas down to the valley and Farndale.
