It is also a bonus that it is one of the Xmas trees that is planted in the ground, and not one of the many that are in peat pots that Glossop / Pennine / Dark Peak runners keep moving about the plateau during the run-up to this race.

I was up in the Lawrence Edge / Wildboar Clough area last week and discovered yet another crafty trod that I hadn't stumbled on before, despite numerous recces over the years. That's one of the beauties of Bleaklow and Kinder, there is always something new to learn on most outings.
have you noticed how all the black pegs keep moving and the white grit sticks??
