Emphasis mine.4. h) A warm hat and waterproof gloves or mittens.
Pre marked checkpoints too!5. Equipment to be carried
f) ... OR 50th Anniversary Fellsman map...
Lessons learned from last year.6. ENTRANTS WILL BE DISQUALIFIED FOR:
Failing to maintain compact groups of entrants after these have been formed as per
rule 2d. Each member of the group must be within both sight and sound of all
members of that group. Failure to maintain groups will result in disqualification of
the WHOLE group;
Looks like they will be integrating some automation into the Felltrack system, hope it goes well for them. Probably only at roadside checkpoints mind.6. e) Losing their tally or damaging the RFID chip so that it is rendered unusable;
Set the controls to excited.
