Drove up to Mam Tor in the end. The cold wind and changeable weather put us off actually climbing the mother hill to see the sun rise, so we drove a short distance down the other side of the hill where we were able to get a spectacular view of the solstice sunrise. I know the sun rises and sets every day, but for some reason we left feeling we had witnessed something pretty special and felt honoured. A few brave souls had made their way up the hill, but mostly it was a lot quieter than I expected with only about 10 max making the trek up there and where we were we were completely alone. Fab experience and I am so glad we took the chance and went (which we nearly didn't) :-)
