    Cheshire Walkers Walks Programme: Apr 2011 { Sep 2011 Sun 3rd Apr 2011: Lake District: Helvellyn from Thirlmere Description: A walk with extensive views over many mountain ranges and lakes including Thirlmere, Ullswater and Coniston Water. Initial steep ascent directly to the summit of Helvellyn from the car park, with views of virtually the whole length of Thirlmere. From the summit, we will have time to look down on Red Tarn and Striding Edge. Continue along the ridge to the south from Helvellyn to Nethermost Pike and Dolly- wagon Pike, and then descend to Grisedale Tarn, with views over Fairfield and St Sunday Crag. Final ascent up Seat Sandal, then down to Dunmail Raise and back to Thirlmere. Start point: Grid Reference: NY325136 - Wythburn Church car park - Thirlmere Level: Strenuous Distance: 9 miles Leader: Jay Sun 10th Apr 2011: Yorkshire Dales: Embsay Moor, Waterfall Gill and Embsay Crag Description: Often ignored as it lies on the edge of the National Park, Embsay Moor is one of the quieter places in Yorkshire. We'll visit Embsay Crag (with good views of Simon's Seat near Bolton Abbey), the moor itself, and Waterfall Gill, a rather impressive waterfall. Note: due to ground nesting birds this walk is not suitable for dogs. Start point: Small carpark in the centre of Embsay. GR SE 009 537, nearest postcode BD23 6RF Level: Moderate Distance: 10 miles Leader: Charles Sun 17th Apr 2011: Cumbria: Hutton Roof Crags and Farleton Fell Description: As you travel up the M6 to the Lake District, you may have noticed the hill to the right just before turning off at J36.

  • The Fell Runner Spring 1977 the Greatest Selection of Gear for Fell Runners in Britain
    THE FELL RUNNER SPRING 1977 THE GREATEST SELECTION OF GEAR FOR FELL RUNNERS IN BRITAIN We specialise in gear for fellmen and orienteers. We use the gear ourselves in events like the Vaux Mountain Trial and the Karrimor Mountain Marathon — and you don't get tougher events than those! So take your pick from the selection below. If you are in urgent need of gear and have an Access Card or Barclaycard, then all you need to do is phone us with your order and card number and the gear will be in the post that same day. If ordering by post, then do give us your English size (plus Continental size if known) and also send us an outline of your foot (stand on a piece of paper in your socks and draw around your toot). All weights quoted are for a pair of size 8, and are approximate. FELL SHOES THE FINNISH NOKIA. A very strong studded shoe at an extremely attractive price. Strong P.V.C. coated nylon upper (green) with a strong multi studded sole. Will stand up to a lot of bashing. Weight: 680 grams (24 ozs) Sizes 34-39 £5.75 Sizes 40-48 £6.50. COMPASSROSEN WEDGE. This studded shoe from Sweden, when combined with an Adidas inner sole, is our favourite fell shoe. One pair did 18 hours out of 24 in the record breaking Lakeland 24 hour run in 1975 and looked almost new at the finish.We send you an Adidas Inner Sole (price £1.40) which is slightly larger than the sole and then you cut the toe so that it fits the shoe exactly, and so doesn't move.

    black combe runners newsie october 2014 note from the editor What a fantastic summer we’ve had! I’ve lost count of the number of beautiful sunny social runs and clear, blue-sky fell races we’ve been lucky enough to have over the past few months. The club has seen some fantastic personal achievements too, in particular three successful Bob Graham attempts (well done Michael, Tim & John!) and celebrating Peter’s final Birkett. The Black Combe Summer Champs are still ongoing, with real competition for the fell top spot; less than one point stands between Mike McIver and Tim Ripper, with only Langdale and Dunnderdale left to decide the winner. Harvey has had a fantastic season leading the road champs and we wish him a speedy recovery after fracturing his ankle and rupturing ligaments in the Three Shires fell race (ouch!!). Whilst I’m here, I’d also like to take this opportunity to welcome some very special new additions to the Black Combe family! Huge congratulations to Will & Sue on the arrival of baby Flo, to John & Katy on the arrival of baby Owen and to Harvey & Jo on the arrival of baby Bess. We wish you all the best and lots more sleep! I hope you enjoy this issue of newsie… many thanks again to all of you who have been kind enough to contribute your articles and photographs. It’s now time for us to don our head torches, zip up our waterproofs and brace ourselves for the winter season! See you at the next social run! Take care, Beth When the nights draw in, it can only mean one thing.
