I suspect that I could have put on a lot of height directly above Grasmere village on this occasion to top up for a run further south. The simple answer Dave If you suspect you could ,you should try. That it what Xc is all about; putting Hypothesise to the test and then dealing with the experience ...

You are right about Loughrigg - It is only worth contemplating when there is a good north wind showing on the Lake and dont do it towards the end of the day either. It is just like it is often worth going into the space behind 'The Lion and the Lamb' but not on a northerly. On the right day itis a g...

Reading your account Jim - I would surmise one of the reasons why you found it tricky is down to the wind direction the more North there is on the Ridge the bouncier the traditional toping up places get. In my experience, I either try to get high and fly the ridgeline that separates Thirlmere valley...

If doing big xc's was simply all about climbing into cloud then everyone would be at it. Doing big xc's is all about timing. knowing which climbs are likely to go to base, or clear the terrain safely is first. Second know when to you can speed up ( skip climbs or leave climbs early) or slow down and...

I will reframe your question Tony - Why does is appear to be more difficult to post declarations on the national league? The Cumbrian league is affiliated to the national league in an attempt to encourage the CSC membership who log their flights to also log them in our national league. By entering t...

Using rechargables are great but it does mean I am generally less prepared as I know it takes just enough time to do a recharge in the car while traveling the short distance from my house to the launch at brigsteer.

I will not be making any claim as I crossed one of those nasty invisible lines while changing batteries on one of my instruments. If I hadn't it would have been 139.6km straightline or 148km via turnpoints. Still the complete trip took me from Brigsteer to Scotch Corner (declared goal) then across t...
