The Great Ridge – Mam Tor

The Great Ridge – Mam Tor
A glimpse of this fine ridge walk, clearly seen here. At 517 metres high there are fine views as well as good walking. An hour or so before I took this, the ridge was completely covered in cloud. The summit of Mam Tor is just behind me here.
“Mam Tor is the main link between the eastern end of Rushup Edge and the western end of the Great Ridge, making this one of the most-loved ridge walks in the Peak District National Park. On a clear day, you can even see Manchester!

Mam Tor is also referred to as the ‘Shivering Mountain’ because of its propensity for landslips caused by unstable lower levels of shale.”

Full screen essential.

Enjoy the day.

It's sometimes difficult to get a sense of scale in this sort of image, but viewing this one large and noticing the buildings, it's much easier, and I see that the Ridge Walk is much higher than I originally thought.

It's such a beautiful place Herb..............and you've captured it perfectly!**********

I must agree Keith. Seeing a big scene like this, it is often difficult to gauge scale. Glad it all worked out in the end,

Best Wishes. Herb

Thanks Dave. A cold wet miserable day but a little broken cloud saved the photographs. We did neither of the full walks just heading down to the crest here below here before black clouds stopped play. I know you have some cracking photos from up here. I too have now found my old ones from when we did the full ridge walk some years back.

Cheers. Herb
