Heights of Winter 2026

I wasn’t quite sure how this one was going to go, being somewhat unfit and with navigation being a little out of practice. Anyway, originally it was going to be a team of three with Malc and Gabby (my climbing partners), but, Malc had to drop out unfortunately. I was really happy with how well it all worked. Our navigation was basically perfect (we opted for a straightforward route, but, we found every control we went for without toooooo much searching). Our timing was also pretty spot on, getting about about 10 minutes early in the 6 hour event.

The weather couldn’t have been kinder. It was beautifully sunny, almost a spring like day (rather than the heights of winter!).

There was one part we probably did get wrong, ending up in a “short” amount of “fight” we needed to get through. It put up a good fight!

The food at the end was hot and very welcome and a perfect end to a really fun day out. Looking forward to doing more events!
