Where has JtE Been

I’ll give it a go!

    1. Top Barn outside main entrance
    2. Running off Great Hill towards White Coppice at the turn off from the Brinscall path
    3. Path from Rivington village to Lower Barn
    4. Great Hill Summit
    5. Not sure about this one JtE, is it on the Brinscall path
    6. Stile from the riverside path approaching White Coppice
    7. Is this in the vicinity of Drinkwaters and Joe’s cup?
    8. Gate on path below High Bullough Res.

Looks like you had a lovely day for it JtE.  Was it the Saturday Run?

We too had a good weekend, seeing Iain Kelly and Karl Taylor on their BGs on Hindscarth and having a little trot out with each team as they came through.  We then returned to Honister to drive back to Keswick to welcome Karl back to the Moot Hall. 

Both men got round with time to spare.  Iain having a bit of an epic on the night section, visiting Great Dodd three times before finding the path off.  Cloud cover was pretty dense by all accounts.  Both looked strong when we saw them.   No precise time for Iain but we think about 21 hours.

Karl also lost an hour on the night section but got round in a splendid 22.48 and still going strong at the end.  Weather very hot and humid in the afternoon.

Staying at Glen Ridding gave us the opportunity to trot out to Catstye Cam, Helvellyn over towards the Dodds but cutting back over Sheffield Pike and Glenridding Dodd to give us an early retreat down the motorway to avoid the worst of the traffic later in the day.
