STANAGE VS MILE CHALLENGE

Date: 14th June
Location: Stanage Edge

Briefing:

A team of ten aim to shag all the routes in the 1989 BMC guidebook graded Very Severe in one day. This challenge has its own special old fashioned grade of XS 6a, and includes two modern day E1s, and three climbs of technical grade 6a. This is over a mile of vertical climbing, and works out to 29 routes for each pair.

The Team:

Alek Kumar
Shagwell Bannister
Proffessor Sensei Chris
Thomas Murray
Martin Lane
James Cross
Laurence Everitt
Ant Schwirtz


Cause:

As well as it being a personal challenge for us all, we hope to raise £1000 for the Edale Mountain Rescue Team. The Edale Mountain Rescue Team (EMRT) is a Registered Charity providing a Search and Rescue Service for the moorland and upland areas of the Peak District National Park. It is staffed entirely by unpaid volunteers and is self funded.
Charity Registration No 512559
