Geoff, a few of us reccied the first half of the route on our club night last Thursday but we called it a day at the Lower Shelf flag (CP5?) due to poor visibility (you couldn’t see the Higher Shelf trig from a few metres away). I seem to recall that the flag in White Clough was quite tricky to find also. The course looked challenging with plenty of climb involved anyway.
Just in case anyone's interested (I am)...
March Edale
April FLM(:( )
May Old Counties Tops (partner permitting)
June Duddon
July Wasdale
August Borrowdale
Etc. etc...

If i recommend a race which i'm sure quite a few will have tried, The Mallerstang Yomp, first sunday in June, 23 miles , 3700' of ascent. Done it for 10 years, had every weather possible, but it's all fun, views great and endless tea and sarnis at the end, showers, very hot. It starts at Kirby Stephen School. Apart from the yomp here's my list for 2007 .

Mar Trollers Trot
April Guisborough
May Cronkley
June Yomp
July Lyke Wake
Sept Simonside show
Oct 9 Edges or Loch Ness Marathon
