The 10 Peak Challenge I took part in a couple of week ago, for Macmillan Nurses, was very well organised. To the point where I initially felt quite aggrieved at having a 'kit check' prior to being allowed to commence: Especially given the obvious age of my interrogator who probably hadn't even been born when I did my first (Bronze, Silver & Gold) Duke of Edinburgh expeditions.
But, I knew it was all being done for the right reasons and I was glad that they were going to the trouble of checking. Also, the checking in at marshalling points was highly organised, to the point when Mrs I arrived at base camp, a while before we were due to return, and asked if they knew where we were - she was given the time and location of when we last 'clocked in' .... ' They're on Wandope ' she was told. As indeed we had been about 15 minutes beforehand.
Those two guys on Ingleborough were clearly unprepared, and I know there is a shared responsibility etc but you do have to wonder at the 'organisation' that allowed them to proceed.
PS - we also spotted our candidate for the Darwin Awards - as we were descending off Robinson down to Buttermere - a rather well groomed chap walked enthusiastically past us. Not a word was spoken but you could see everyone's expression, thinking ' is he really appropriately dressed ? '
