Planning this one for next weekend seeing as still uninjured! Where is start/finish and which route up/down for this one? Been up many times but unsure of race route. Cheers.
Start in same field as 3 ppp's, then up walkers route (right hand side of PYG) have a look ont map for down. Good race mate, enjoy:)Quote:

Thanks Merry, bit of scrambling on this one then.
Its a cracker.
Abit runnable most of the way up, then a good bit of scrambling through the crags to get to the top, and then fire down a rocky track, across some rapid but boggy ground, up a very short climb and then down another track, back onto the road and follow the way you came on the way out back to the field.
Thanks for race map, looks a good race/route. I'll be tackling this one for the first time.Quote:

I suspect they're all good and bad in their own ways though although I'd choose the middleQuote:
