I have done this event three times before, been succesfull twice with a time of 24hours. Each time when crossing Fleetmoss I have descended then followed a mase of fences/walls.
What do the people who seee more of the route in daylight do , follow the fence straight across Fleeetmoss accepting the bogs. Or is there a better choice?
theres a better choice......;):DQuote:

Last year I went through the bogs full on.............. and its definitely not the quick route :D. Great fun though.
It's a lot easier now this section gets crossed in daylight!Quote:

FWIR ... Avoiding the bog involves following the road round to the right, and then cutting back towards the watershed.
But your real problem is getting across Middle Tongue!
Thanks Rudolf, done the one where you drop down the road to the right. Yeah I have to agree that from the watershed the route to middle tongue is not easy.
considering just accepting the bogs and following the fence away from the check point . Just hope that I get grouped with some one that can pull me out.

Ian thanks , was thinking that if i can get to fleetmoss for grouping then stand a good chance of getting 20 hours...... can try and hope.:rolleyes:
the target is to get THROUGH Fleet Moss before grouping;)Quote:
