Map / Terrain
Glorious complex Lakeland fell, unhindered by walls. Bracken will be grown so don't forget to tick check after. Rough terrain but craggy ground can be avoided with sensible route choices. Full leg cover is compulsory. The area is exposed and if the weather is bad you may be required to carry a hooded waterproof jacket, and potentially hat, gloves and waterproof trousers. You should bring these to the event and notices will be displayed in the car park and at the start. You must carry a whistle. |
