    No need for maps ~ just follow the crowds.

    It's Grisedale Horseshoe for me this year so hope you all have a good 'Ben' and I'll see you there in 2010.

    I've heard rumbles from past races that cutting off the zig zags might not be allowed in future. I've not heard anything this year so I assume we can go straight up as on the maps?

    I think the main concern is cutting off some of the earlier zigzags. In the Three Peaks Yacht Race, we had to follow all of the zigzags up to Red Burn going up and down and had an extra control at the lochan to make sure we did, but we were allowed to use the straight up and down route from Red Burn to the summit and back. It will be interesting to see whether any additional rules are issued with the race cards.
