No word here either, so they must be on radio silence at the minute.  They'd better be anyway.......

This is really tough.  Jack will be first to admit his admin wasn't the best so the meet up night was spent transferring kit and packing rucksacks into a resemblance of order.  I was shocked at the finishing weights of the packs.

Whilst I was expecting us to add time to our days due to this,  I was not prepared for just how difficult these routes are. I had looked over the maps a few times before leaving and had discussed areas I thought we should look at again and was happy with the route plotted.  What really changes it all is the pathways themselves.

Whilst maps give you heights and gradients etc, they don't prepare you for underfoot conditions.  Fuckin savage I would describe it.  Mostly broken stones and either marsh underneath or for these 3 days the paths are now mainly rivers and no form of waterproofing is keeping your feet dry.

Hang in there you two!

What an awesome thing this is, & what pride & satisfaction you will have when it is finished.

Most of us can but read in awe.

Stay strong, you know you can do it.
