Final information - Mount Karrin with a touch of Dhoo

/

A little last minute but important information for Sunday.

With a big entry and the Tholty Road to cross shortly after the start this means there is likely to be a queue…please be patient, act on our marshals instructions and keep in order of arrival.

Once over the stile you may notice that the cleared route up Mount Karrin is not only very steep but also VERY slippery. Please take great care when descending this part on your return. Some rocky parts to avoid have been marked with flags.

Since this is a category A/M race full FRA prescribed safety kit is compulsory comprising of as a minimum waterproof full body cover, with an attached hood and taped seams, hat ( not a cap), gloves, whistle, map of the route, compass suitable for navigation using the map and emergency food ( a proper size Mars Bar or equivalent). Please also bring and be prepared to carry/wear a long sleeved thermal base layer which may be required subject to the conditions. There will be a full kit check, please bring your kit to registration.

Use of electronic devices for navigation purposes is strictly prohibited. Such devices may be used for determining your position should you become lost but you must then retire from the event.

Vehicle parking at Sulby Claddaghs is limited so please car share where possible. There is sufficient space to park off the edge of the roadway as long as on one side only. Do not park in front of access for properties. Please act on the instruction of any parking controllers.

We plan to have tea/ coffee facilities for you return. Please bring biscuits or even cake if you can. Any excess packs of biscuits can be donated to the Food Bank afterwards.

Registration is open from 09.30 until 10.15 at Sulby Claddagh.The race will start on the lane after the gate/stile at 10.30.Please stay on the Claddagh side of the stile until checked through.

At present it looks like it may be damp and windy…alas not quite Carraghan conditions…..so please come prepared.

Good luck everyone.
