Thanks James, tracker arrived safely, sorry I wasn't in time to help your research by carrying another one.

Geoff going well - a bit of a tracker hiccup on Jenkins hill, but is not just a single rogue tracker point. Strange. Carried by a pacer, who was ahead, then dropped back maybe?

Interesting to see Phil trying the alternative line from GT Calva by Skiddaw house

Interesting to see how they get on, I like those lines, although to take the shortest route the final part is a steep traverse climb, which isn't everyone's cup of tea. Keep dry feet though
A bit concerned how long it took to SH - it is an easy run down.

Now I see it , I think they were north east of the ideal line, climbing a little too much over ground that is rougher than you need, I suspect they had to descend to cross. A better line crosses the brook 300m or so west of there, and in doing a rising traverse is not as steep. it is quite a tough pull, using their reentrant as a handrail - they should be up or close by now - they are a little of corse to the top as well.
