Wasdale

[AJF]

which line is best from seatallan to pillar?
Blands map shows just to right of Haycock to path junction,then along Scoat fell,
but there looks to be a decent line/path via scoat tarn to left of red pike.
What do you think?

Last year I and a fair few others went contoured round north of tarn, then stayed south of scoat fell summit and also black crag has a low level line underneath the crags. Was a good line, had water near tarn and was probably shortest way. I will be going that way again.

Also why not the direct descent off scafell pike? why head around Lingmell?

Checkpoint at wall junction on lingmell nose.

Are the cut offs at wasdale tight for the average runner?

I've entered the race but am worried as to whether I'll get round or not.

Do you know what the cut offs are L? we're often together these days in races and I dont know what we have to aim for on this but i understand they are quite tight.

Hope you get round Mrs. Stagger, cutoffs can't be as tight as a Yorkshireman

A very hopeful post but has anyone got a spare number for Wadale or does anyone know of anyone who may?I did Wasdale last year and missed out on an entry this year.

Cheers
