Coming back from a family weekend yesterday I drove all the way up the Derwent reservoirs (and back) simply because I'd never been up there before.
The reservoirs were pretty low; no surprise there. But this means that the dams were rather exposed.
The dams for Howden and Derwent currently have very near vertical inside walls of gritstone blocks that would make some rather long DWS traverses. The Ladybower dam may be similar.
Has anyone done them?
