Cleveland Way path heading off the moor

This looks like a steep descent, but it's only a short descent before levelling out through the forest on Coate Moor.

Cleveland Way towards the Captain Cook Monument

An easy stretch across near level moorland, but on this occasion the fierce NW headwind made progress difficult.

Path down to the car park

A heavily used path that is part of the Cleveland Way and is also the easiest way to the Captain Cook monument from the road. Much less litter [particularly doggy poo bags slung into trees] than on my last visit. No doubt some clearing up by public spirited people.

Cleveland Way approaching the Captain Cook Monument

Monument erected on Easby Moor in memory of local lad, Captain James Cook - the celebrated 18th Century navigator and explorer. The Cleveland Way takes an abrupt right turn at the obelisk, to head due north.

Rain squall on Brown Hill

It was well forecast, but still quite a surprise when about 3pm it became very dark and the moor was lashed with wind and rain for maybe five minutes. The temperature fell from 12°C to 6°C as a cold front moved through. A short video can be found here. Link

Old carving on a gatepost

Mick Garratt mentioned this in one of his photographs several years ago, but I think this is the first time it has been recorded for geograph. The date appears to be 1668 [or 3?] and below are the initials TW [or possibly JW]. 350 year old graffiti? The post looks odd to me as it has one of those holes at the top which presumably once held a wooden bar, so has the post been turned through 90 degrees or moved from elsewhere?

East from Easby Moor

Russet shades of late winter on the hill slopes below the southern end of Easby Moor. A day for hiding behind the old stone wall to find shelter for a picnic lunch.
