Daz and Elise seem to be doing alright, just setting off for BG central now. Good luck to all!
Steve/Linda - see you at Honister.

Was with Bill on leg 2. Conditions were quite rough - very windy and some heavy showers. Vis wasn't too bad and we were only in clag on the tops. Only one slight mishap saw us overshoot the fence post coming off dollywagon. Bill was focused, in good spirits and moving well. Looking good for him on the tracker over leg 3 too.
Sorry you had to bail Roy, and I hope your lad recovers quickly.
Bill's tracker
Its hard to tell for sure but Bill is maybe 30 minutes down
Thanks.
According to that he seemed to have lost it to dunmail
Is not a massive problem if he can get down to wasdale around 10
The trackers are useful but do mess up here and there, it shows him well east of thunacar and harrison, and dropping massively which will not have happened in reality, seems to have problems under scafell cliffs too.

The tracker obviously loses satellite every now and then and I'm loving the bonkers line* its showing that Bill has taken up Scafell. If he's in Wasdale by 10, he can hopefully catch things up a bit over the last 2 legs
* Its realligned itself a bit now - maybe he tried Lords Rake, turned back and did Foxes Tarn???
bill could be in wasdale this is his pacer i carried his tracker over 1 and then gave it to andy (marmaliser) for 2 that reminds me i still have its case he is going the wrong way of scafell

The worrying thing about it is that from memory there is a track that heads that way down off scafell if you go over and don't double back and just about where they turn towards wasdale head could have been an OMG moment coming out of the clag seeing wasdale head way off to their right prompting a massive turn and km traverse right But the clear jumping of position around rakeshead suggests the tracker is struggling, nothing to do with nav.
Looks as though they jumped the fence! The stile is way off to their left. Nearly down.
