After yesterday's "Cornish Bridges" walk out to the Grey Wethers I'm up to 896 stamps. Not enough time to get to the 1000 today so I'm not qute there yet.

The walk was a good one but the area has a lot more purple moor grass than I remember (it's known as elephant grass in this house). Hard going, and several interesting wet patches that required the classic tussock-hopping and hoping that the next tussock doesn't sink beneath your feet.

We know that feeling all too well having missed the path back from Ducks Pool some months ago - can be very hard work!

Hi Bristol Bogtrotter, I did the cornish search and rescue walk yesterday too, were you the one that I spoke to between boxes 16 and 17? You were oing the walk in reverse?
Beautiful day wasn't it.

Hi Orla, no, we did the walk the way it was written, but we met another boxer (male, I would guess in his 50s) doing it in reverse.
