I've usualy dropped to the bottom resevoir and then headed up past the golf course on the road before cutting onto the pennine way.
What's the black moss way like? I'm wanting to go that way this sunday but not if it's a quagmire
Also how is the Marsden bridleway decent riding at the moment? Haven't been down since April when it was like riding down a small brook
I'm an ex-Marsdenite, so cannot tell you what the Marsden bridleway descent (I presume you mean the packhorse descent) is like at the minute. However, Black Moss is boggy for the majority of the year. It's also not a great trail if ridden in the direction you're going in.
Thanks qtip for the heads up, i'll stick to my usual route then.
I'd wait until it freezes over. Should be sound then
It will be fine, there are only a few boggy bits but it's been dry all week, so shouldn't be too bad, anyway half of its paving slabs
A week ago it was perfect, last weekend it was a bogfest , not been that muddy in at least a year, everything caked.
Willykay clough descent from the pennine way into tunnel end/marsden was really wet Saturday, we both said until next year for that route
Shame really as holmfirth, Emley, mirfield has been dry for weeks
