Following on from this does anyone know a good response when your asked on descent "how long to the top" without sounding like a smart-arse. Ive tried "depends how fast you walk" and " check your map" and have obviously failed by the looks I get.
I usually double the time it's taken me from getting from the summit to the point I'm asked.
I've walked about 20 mins from the summit.
Other walker "How far to the summit?"
Me " About half and hour/45mins"
Other walker "Cheers"
We both go about our merry way.
