Dave Lloyd’s Planner’s update:

• All controls are situated on or close to a minor road or a forest road which should provide fast, but not necessarily the shortest routes in in any conditions except snow.
• Anything off the main tracks at this time of year will be slow or very slow and some of the steep sections very technical.
• With the event centre based at the Keldy cafe, there will be the luxury of hot drinks snacks and light meals before and afterwards.
• All paths and tracks around the site are out of bounds except for the forest roads going north and west and the service road from the south.
• Helpers should follow the signs to and park outside of reception.
• The main parking will be on the High Muffles forest road north of the cafe.
• This will also be one of the two route choices from the start and back to the finish so please take care whilst changing and when finishing.
