Durham Dewey Round.
Durham Dewey Round completed 30th September 2018. A Dewey is a hill or mountain in England or Wales over 500 metres (1,640 feet) in elevation, but below 2,000 feet (609.6 metres), with a relative height of at least 30 metres (98 feet). The list was compiled by Michael Dewey and published in his book Mountain Tables. There are 4 in County Durham. I devised a circular route from Stanhope Dales Centre visiting Collier Law, Horseshoe Hill , Bolts Law West and finally Dry Rigg, back through Rookhope. Distance 20.5 miles Ascent 2,600 ft. Terrain rough. We could have picked a better day for the weather but took us 4 hours 50 mins . Thanks to Mike Knipe for planting the idea in my head and Garry Dickinson for good company on the round today .
