Saunders - Wansfell - Day 1
A bit gentler overall today although there was still a big old climb up to illgill head to kick off and then a brutal steep descent where we got stuck in rocky gorse/bracken for a bit. Unfortunately for them Ed & Jon were stuck even worse and for longer and having lost time to them on the route choice and climb to #2 we sneaked back in front. Then there was a sequence that felt more like orienteering controls that I enjoyed a lot, partly as my legs had taken a bit of a beating on the steep slopes by that point.
Up there with the best Cochrane weekenders.
