Spoil
The deep snow covering the spoil tips from Ricklow Quarry that spill down into Lathkill Dale look infinitely better with a liberal cover of snow. The story goes that the quarry company nearly blocked the valley bottom completely with spoil before being stopped. Old maps show a cart track all the way from Monyash to Lathkill Dale cave, so the valley floor must have been wider. Now it is a bit of a scramble between the rocks.
