    Re: Fellsman

    Hi there folks, new to the site and I'm after a little help. I'm doing the Fellsman next month and at the moment I'm sitting with the maps out going over the route. From searching back through the forum I see rumours of a nice dryish route over fleet moss, any one able to help me out with a few GRefs for this route and any other tips gratefully received. Sorry to be a pest on my first visit.
    cheers

    Hi Rab,

    I'd dare suggest there's no such thing as dry line over fleet moss.

    For me this year I'm going to tough out straight across the boundary fence line.

    Last couple of years I've gone further south and always felt I was wasting time.

    IMHO ;

    The only dry way across Fleet Moss is to fly !

    No need IDP - I'm sure I saw in the rules for this year that mask, snorkel and fins are mandatory

    Re: Fellsman

    SO, who believes the weather forecast?

    The Barmy Broadcast Co are predicting fine weather the rest of the week, and over this weekend.

    I hope they are right for once, a drier than normal crossing would be great for my first time (no 289).

    If your a fellow masocist see you there!

    Thumbs up Re: Fellsman

    Perhaps, don't forget to put the sun cream on

    Fleet Moss I don't expect will be that dry ! I was on the back end of the route on Buckden Pike and Great Whernside on Friday and it didn't seem too bad up there. There was a bit of wetness about but alright
