"Cistern's Clough At Night"

                           "you are never really lost but are just temporarily not sure where you are!"

With just a head torch, map and compass it's time for some night navigation practice. At 2,000 feet up on a cold wet March evening with gusts of up to 70 mph Axe Edge isn't the most hospitable place to practice some navigation across rough terrain in the pitch black! Parking up at Cistern's Clough it was a case of take a bearing from the map that you could hardly hold still and head into complete darkness. But over two hours later it was with a great deal of satisfaction that we found our way back!
