I'd be very interested to know what your split was between 5 and 6?Originally Posted by Toreador
Did anyone findthe vaguely suicidal-looking planners route to the last control on day 2, straight down the craggy hillside from Red Pike? We went for the scree run down Black Comb and gained about 10 minutes on the others in front of us who went for Wind Gap
By the time we got to 5 the cloud had come in on the top of Scoat Fell, and we were worried about dropping down amongst all those crags, so for some reason we thought it would be sensible to carry on along the path more or less all the way to Dore Head, then drop down there and double-back. That leg took us 1hr 4mins and must have cost us a couple of places at least :thunbdown:
