Just read 4 pages into this thread and realised i'm about 2 years behind!!!!

Does anyone know if drinks/water will be available en-route this year.

Many ta's,

Water stations at the road crossing at Holme Moss mast, and also last year there was water at the Crowden checkpoint. Grimmer
I think there was talk of water at Laddow as well.

But we've had a fair bit of rain so there will be streams on route including the stream that comes off Black Chew Head
