I found Ter Hill and my Dartmoor mojo.

I parked up at Combestone Tor with the plan of running out to Ter Hill.  On the way I visited Hooten Wheals (P12) where I stopped to remove my windproof.  Is was a beautiful day, but with a cold wind hence the windproof early on, but now it was hotting up.

I picked up a nice track which took me all the way to western most of the Ter Hill Crosses (P11).

From there I turned south picking up some sheep tracks which made the going easier.  It's very dry at moment on the moors and this made the going a little easier going to Ter Hill, I can imagine that it would be hard going in wetter conditions.  Although the summit of Ter Hill is a little disappointing it has a feeling of remoteness which I love about the south moor, and is different from the feeling I get when traversing the North Moor. From there I made my way to Naker's Hill, again not much to report here.  Then onwards down to Carter's Beam Picking a burnt area which must have been the site of the recent Dartmoor fires.  I wonder how they started.  I decided to run this burnt area as I thought I would offer some good running.  Wrong! The ground was very soft making the going very energy sapping.  I was soon at Carters Beam (Q10).

  Before running the small gully down to Fox Tor.  From Fox Tor I ran down into Sunshine Valley (Harvey's Maps) aptly named on this hot sunny day. Up Mount Misery and on Home via Few more crosses!
