As I haven't been down the local spot for a good few weeks; beginning of December 2017 was the last time, I decided to pay a visit, especially seeing there was a couple of off-piste movements due through. Leaving home, I drove the relatively short distance to Burbage Common, getting there just before 10am. Well I say relatively short distance, it's about 50 minutes walking distance lol. Despite the snow and subsequent rain we had the previous day, the ground wasn't too sodden, luckily there is some really thick grass on the way to the crossing so this kept the mud on my trainers down to a minimum.
