I believe Weardale have completely dropped out of the Explorer scheme because they weren't be re-compensated enough by the councils, if you have a look in the Weardale thread, I think I made a post in there a couple of months ago. You could catch the Arriva 46 to Crook from Durham?
I was thinking of getting the bus to Consett then walking over the moors along the old railway line to Stanhope if the weather improves. I'll probably get the 46 from Crook to Durham. Depending on the time I might have a look around Lees and Durham City Coaches at Langley Moor.
