    Torchlit runs

    Which head torch lights your world?

    What clothing to take to ward off a chill but not over cook?

    Yellow Hiviz or normal kit?

    Who knows these things Please, I would like some advice on what to spend my £ on?

    We use the Myo XP, good for the price. I think the Silva S1 is better but it's a step up in price.

    Myo XP saw me right in the Howgills pitch black all last winter.

    Princeton Tec Apex user for the last two winters, no concerns about it doing the job for another one.

    Myo XP for me

    What to wear is very dependant on weather

    I vary from thin tights and long sleeved tops similar to what I'd wear on a cool summer day, up to light weight fleece tops and bottoms with balaclava, mitts and full event waterproofs (not forgetting ice axe and crampons)
