Friendly advice
Here are some thoughts that might be useful before heading out on an adventure like this:
- Always check the weather, ask around a local or someone who’s been there a day before
- It is better not to do this course after rain, the rocks are very slippery.
- Carry enough food and water
- Get the most detailed map you can. We used the the one supplied by Mountain Sports on their event website
- Carry a PLB, alternatively keep someone updated about your progress. Garmin has LiveTrack, Strava has Beacon. If you have a smart watch, these can work together very well wherever there is network coverage
- Take some good wound dressings with you (extras, too), very easy to fall and scratch yourself
- Wear something that covers your legs
- Do not take your poles
Hope all this info has helped.
