Alphin, Grouse - How about the weekend of 8/9th Nov - Saturday would be my prefered day but I can be flexible.
Just off thread Alphin - when is your next night run around the Dovestones res's area ? As I'm only a 20 min drive away have been meaning to get up there meself during the week as an alternative to doing laps of playing fields on my doorstep.
Cheers

I'm working this saturday but a group of us are meeting on Sunday 2/11/08 9am at The Clarence to car share upto Snoopys layby....Blackhill to Crowden reccy return via Tooleyshaw.....will PM you my mobile number ...
I have to work on the weekend of the 8/9 Nov...
I have not done this race before so I was wondering if there is any "official" transport from Edale to Marsden on the day of the run or does everyone arrange their own transport to Marsden?
Hi mate,Quote:

Grouse - will firm up time & location next week. Quite fancy (:eek:) the Bleaklow section.
Alphin - just sent you a pm - out celebrating Diwali tonight :)
ok thanks Alphin, sounds like I will have to ask Mrs Alf nicely for her chaufering services on the day. I assume you mentioned Crowden/Snake in case I need to drop out?Quote:

there has been a late route change?:eek:. I would recheck your
bearings and grid references if I was you mate. I don't think the mountain
rescue would go to Hell for you:D
Of course we would, as long as nobody claims to have put the call out for us, and the wind is taking us off our feet and rain is hammering down and nobody needs us.:rolleyes:Quote:

one quick question, which is the best route off black hill ,toolyshaw or down to the sheepfold and crowden little brook.
Crowden Little Brook - keep to the right of it to pick up the trod, but be careful, it's easy to go wrong here, some of the front runners did last year, I think dropping into Meadow Grain Clough then Crowden Great Brook - not good. Did it myself but realised the mistake quite soon thankfully. Definitely worth a recce.
Which one Daz, - Bob?
Anyone know if the turn off point after Blackhill is definatley going to be 1.3k after the trig (as reported on an earlier post).....

I'll go up next week and mark it. We also need to repair a broken stile:(
PB can you make Wed or Thur?

Go beyond the "ponds" by about 5 metres to where a small "cairn" is on the right hand side of the slabs, look left at this point and you will see a trod running roughly in the direction you want.
After 50 metres (ish) another trod crosses the one you are on, this is the one you would have ben on if you had turned off the slabs before the "ponds". Turn right on this new trod and you will get to the, whats left of, stile at the top of Little Brook.
The route described above will avoid us treading any new grass.
Thanks for your cooperation."
Hope that clears it up Alphin

Is a beeline straight off the trig point out of bounds then - I always did that which isn't a bad idea as there's a big peat hag to head for though a bit gloopy - tried to find the turn off from further down the slabs though and went wrong, as did a few others:o
Been out for a recce from Black Hill to Crowden today, followed plum bums instructions to pick up the trog on left from just after the flooded area, then turn right at the trog crossing. Found the broken style and climbed over after I dragged myself out of knee deep mud. Uncertain of path then but spotted stud marks and followed these all the way to Crowden, well done fellow recciers. It was bloomin cold today feet like blocks of ice, much colder than last weekends OMM.:cool:
It's getting close!Quote:
