Boar's head Wed 8 June

Postby Lynda » Mon Jun 06, 2016 6:09 pm

Hello all

I'm considering entering the Boar's head on Wednesday and wondered how much navigation is needed. I've seen the map available but any advice from more experienced fell runners would be much appreciated and I may well be better putting my novice navigation skills to other use!

Thanks
Lynda

Hi Lynda
With this good weather you should be able to follow people OK the whole route. The only place there is a route choice is on the edge of Lyme Park - suggest you stick to the wall all the way up to Bowstones and you cant go wrong. Many of us think that is the fastest route anyway. See you there. Cheers Rachael
