Everyone except Michael missed last week's visit to the Avon Dam, so a repeat was arranged this evening by popular demand. This region of Dartmoor is different every time we visit depending on the weather, the season, and how we feel ourselves, but its timeless beauty is always present. This evening there were many fish jumping out of the smooth waters into the golden glow of the setting sun, and everywhere around was utterly still. And when the diminishing light finally forced us to move on there was the exciting high speed downhill track across the moor to Cross Furzes that always leaves us wanting to go around again.
