    Edale Skyline

    Going to recce the 2nd half of the Edale Skyline (probably go up to Hollins Cross and then round to Mam Tor, Brown Knoll, etc) on either Monday (27th) or Tuesday (28th) if anyone fancies a trot round. Will be steadyish (expecting it to take me about 2hrs or so).

    Glen - Probably going Tuesday (need a steady day after Chevin Chase today) and will probably start mid-morningish.

    Yes - was quite good fun- very icy and snowy (obviously), but otherwise it was Ok. Clag was down, so difficult to navigate at times!

    Took me a bit longer than I expected - 3hrs and a bit!

    Anyone keen on a trott round the skyline friday night? I'm planning on heading out from edale about 8 - 8.30 (fexible with time). Plan will be to do the full circuit but if it's not going great then will drop off at mam nick. Be a causual pace so back the early hours.

    I've checked the weather and it looks clear and calm.

    I know some people are reccying the HPM so would happily do some of that with anyone if you want some company.

    Glen

    Looks like I'm going to get the chance to get a recce half of the route in February, but no more. I'm thinking of doing the second half, which looks like the more difficult section... Am I completely wrong? I think I've been over about 20m of the route before - oh, I mean 20 metres, not miles
