9 members and 4 dogs caught the sunshine on this classic walk . The conditions and the vistas were perfect, highlighting this area of the Hope Valley in the best light. It did however, invite many others to sample these delights and it was very crowded as well being caught up in the maelstrom of an 80 member charity walk. Hike with Mike is a charity rising funds to provide crises mental health intervention, so a good cause. We suppressed any grumbling and enjoyed a convivial walk of 9.1 miles in great weather, catching refreshments at the Adventure cafe in Hope on the finish. Thanks everyone for the great company.
