southcotswoldramblers.org.uk Dursley and Cam circular Sun 7 December 2008 . |
||
| A
cold frosty morning and Maurice & Dave wait for final stragglers to
get ready . . |
|||
| Our
route taking us past the Old Spot - sorry not open yet . . |
|||
| And
up an icy road . . |
|||
| Dropping
down into a frost covered valley . . |
|||
| With
views to Cam peak, Cam Long Down and Frocester Hill . . |
|||
| Not
often you see a permissive horse . . |
|||
| We
head up through the woods . . |
|||
| Now
with a different view of Cam Peak and Long Down - Uley Bury in the
background . . |
|||
| On
the other side of Stinchcombe Hill we stop for coffee - now looking over
the Severn . . |
|||
| We
begin our decent into the valley . . |
|||
| Pausing
to watch a game of rugby . . |
|||
| Plenty
of mistletoe this year . . |
|||
| Trish
coping well with a stile . . |
|||
| Our
path starts to climb over towards Cam . . |
|||
| The
Severn Valley with Slimbridge Church standing out in the haze . . |
|||
| And
May Hill, as always, in the background . . |
|||
| We
pass through Cam and stop for lunch . . |
|||
| In
fields the other side - Bernard standing guard . . |
|||
| Leaving
Cam we head across fields . . |
|||
| Past
this gruesome relic . . |
|||
| Negotiating
a narrow and slippery bridge . . |
|||
| Shadows
lengthening as the sun goes down . . |
|||
| A
difficult gateway where the frost has thawed out . . |
|||
| Always
thought Ray should be behind bars! . . |
|||
| And
we return to Dursley through the old Lister site . . |
|||

| Photos
and captions thanks yet again to Richard
. . |
|||
| As you can see, we thoroughly enjoy getting to know the South Cotswolds. We try to keep fit and succeed in having a good old chat. If you are interested in coming with us, see our walks programme and ring the leader if you have any questions about a particular walk. After two or three walks we hope you will then want to join the group as part of the national Ramblers' Association. | |||
