Chatsworth / Beeley Moor / Gibbet Moor (Circular) - Derbyshire (Peak District) - 22/12/17 - 8.5 Miles

The Hunting Tower canon stands ready to defend Chatsworth.
Sad little Christmas tree is all alone on Gibbet Moor.
Kindly elderly gentlemen shows passers by the way.
Santa's reindeer fuel up, before their big night.

Gardoms Edge / White Edge / bottom of Birchen Edge (Circular) - Derbyshire - 14/12/17 - 7 Miles

View from Gardoms Edge at the start of the walk. To my surprise the snow was still on the ground around these parts.
By the time I passed the Eaglestone, the icy slush was starting to be felt in my non-waterproof boots.
I was surprised to see this lot still wandering about.
The trig point at White Edge, which was starting to live up to its name.
The icing appeared to have fallen off the Birchen edge cake.
