Route Between Crowden Clough and Kinder Downfall

The lay of the land and the nature of the water channels probably makes this route over Kinder Scout easier to find when taken from Crowden Clough to Kinder Downfall. The path is generally visible but a compass is necessary equipment to avoid being misled in poor visibility. HOWEVER, the right of way marked on the OS map appears not to be the way people go, and an attempt to follow this route with a GPS is likely to be an unhappy experience (Google/Bing will reveal stories).

In case anyone should wish to follow a GPS track, or to compare an on-the-ground route with the OS map, here is my track log.

Crowden Clough to Kinder Downfall GPS track log (GPX format). This was (for me) a fairly obvious and reasonable route.
