I had planned to start on 15 September (doh!) I can;t go before cos I've got other stuff I've promised to do, and the next opportunity will be from 9 November.<br />So, November it is.<br />This gives me plenty of time to see if any more good suggetsions come in. I have taken accoun t of the info so far and John, I'll likely take up your offer of a chat in due course, when I've got a bit more of a plan.<br />So far so good....

Try to avoid anywhere near Princetown - most of the walks/wildcamping around there will be too busy and no fun<br /><br />Drop me an e-mail if I can help, and we can have a chat on the phone to answer any questions.John Heehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01333628949466601415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-66595829045362710542009-08-28T14:33:53.541+01:002009-08-28T14:33:53.541+01:00Before the 15th of Sept I presume, or the military...Before the 15th of Sept I presume, or the military are going to have a say in your wanderings for sure.<br /><br />http://www.dartmoor-ranges.co.uk/firing_notice_1.html<br /><br />It is an old site now but always found this handy inspiration:<br />http://www.richkni.co.uk/dartmoor/<br /><br />And this one is the mother of all Dartmoor sites:<br />http://www.legendarydartmoor.co.uk/Old Winterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05675537267005784244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-90468594043175210112009-08-28T12:51:41.556+01:002009-08-28T12:51:41.556+01:00Just remember that some parts are off limits somet...Just remember that some parts are off limits sometimes due to the need to blow things up and shout a lot (including swearing) saying get up that hill you little '**$% and engage the enemy. <br /><br />Apart from that it is a fantastic place to walk. I reckon your goal should include Ten Tors and a pint, or two at Postbridge.Martin Ryehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719332121719827761noreply@blogger.com
