What parts of Dartmoor on you on about? Do you know where Hound Tor is? Do you know where the village ruins are? Between the 2 of those is a stream and a wooded area.
Lots of Dartmoor is just rocks and grass, but there are areas of woodlands.

Tourists are an annoyance, but that's not an issue. It'll me mostly treking around, I think. Also, no point going deepest and darkest. We are still getting to know one another.

Since you are, quite rightly, going PM on this, will you please remember to post some kind of report/result afterwards? I'd be very interested and I'm sure others will be too...

Last meet I was at, over in Wales, when we all went into our tents to get some sleep, we were ALL on the forum messaging about how it was going haha.
I think a write up is a requirement.
