Trek Report by Satish Shah
Considering the weather we had success on our epic adventure challenge.
All the three mountains climbed well within the 14 hours suggested time so we are treating the
Climbing part as success. Next year hopefully can complete the whole event within 24 hours.
Total time to complete including road journey was from 24.34 to 26.30 hours
Funds raised to date: approx £1000

The Peaks
Ben Nevis, the highest of the three peaks at 1344 metres (4409 ft), has only one main path, the path to Ben Nevis starts close to sea level, meaning much greater vertical ascent.
While Scafell Pike has several paths, most Three Peaks Challengers will begin at Wasdale Head, to the North of Wast Water.
While Snowdon has many paths with varying difficulty, most Three Peaks Challengers will follow either the Pyg Track or Miners Track, leaving from the Pen-y-Pass car park, on the A4086.
