Overview

From Prewley we head towards Kitty tor and then down to cross the West Okement at Sandy Ford.  On to LintsTor, Dinger Tor and then High Willhayes.  We return via the edge of Meldon reservoir.

The water at Sandy Ford will be well over boots and tussock, uneven ground and bogs are guaranteed.
