Elbow Ridge, Peak District

Today we ventured across to Winnats Pass to quickly scramble Elbow Ridge hoping that the rain would hold off until the afternoon.
After a very damp and slippery initial first section, the terrain eased off and we then made good progress to the top of the pass. We continued past Blue John Cavern, Mam Farm and onto Lose Hill.
After a short break we turned back, crossing the top of Mam Tor in low cloud and returned to the car before any rain arrived.
