Birchen and Windgather..

Morag and I have been climbing in the Peak District for the last couple of days, as an introduction to the grit. With visits to both Birchen and Windgather we have managed to tick a good number of routes as well as consuming plenty of cake. It has been quite windy and overcast for most of the time, with the weather deteriorating today into showers.

Despite this, we managed to get a generally dry day at Windgather Rocks on the western edge of the Peak District. A good choice with plenty of shelter from the north easterly winds, unless you were at the top!
