Still wet underfoot but even so Carmel picked a route that could be expected to be dry
Thirty walkers this morning, ten opted for the short walk
Carmel was leading the main walk with James Mc back marking. Elizabeth M was leading the optional short walk group with Lawrence back marking
Carmel led the main group down Snake Hill over the Stone Bridge and up the slope to the Lake. Continuing round the east side of the Lake up the steps to join Cam Lane along to Hawks Clough and up past the Ponderosa still on Cam Lane.
They left Cam Lane to go down the steps into Green Wood eventually arriving back at Hawks Clough. Leaving Hawks Clough they continued along Cam Lane, edge of the Field, down to the Kissing Gate, down the slope turning left on the Cycle Track to walk along the river to the Wooden Bridge.
Across the bridge up Cardiac Hill into the Pinetum and back to the Barn.
Elizabeth led the short option group into the Pinetum and down Cardiac Hill,
