[QUOTE=Fellhound;488224]I agree. Slightly off topic but I find the obsession among fell runners with finding a shorter 'faster' more direct way to be a bit sad. Of course, speed is the name of the game so it's inevitable but I'm always aggrieved when the need for speed takes me along some soul-less contour or down a bland slope when the ridges are so much more sporting and aesthetically pleasing...


actually, I'm with you on this one. ridges are usually the nicest lines.
