| 5.5 mile circular from car park north of Easby Moor, followed field paths and minor roads then across to and through woods onto Cliff Rigg, from there we followed footpath to Roseberry Topping (2nd time bagged, first time in 2004!), then along Cleveland Way towards Great Ayton Moor, approached summit from north following under-used footpath then we headed quite easily across moor to Cleveland Way and back to car park. Afterwards drove to and bagged Gisborough Moor, cloudy with rare sun, plenty of people about. | DanTrig | 20/10/2020 |
