Silbury Hill it is. Was wondering whether to crop it out altogether and see if it would be recognised from its surroundings.

Your go.

Not sure I would have got if from the surroundings alone - but even a tiny hint of the the man-made slope gives it away (and you left far more than that).

Overall not bad, main aim was to get out more - more than 1 week in Lakes and a trip or two to South Wales (that has been the norm for a few years now). So: Two trips to the Lakes - including one for the Woolpack Walk. About 30 Wainwrights in all this year - with 25 being new ones, taking my total t...

Read the title and was expecting a guide for hares on how to use snowshoes.

Our usual Christmas trip to the Brecon Beacons - a rare one, without the use of waterproofs! track (11).gpx Photo's here https://plus.google.com/photos/106459429880001195754/albums/6098361143369342897 The forecast looked good for Monday so the final decision was made to go then - and what an excelle...

How much are Open Source maps? Can you get 1:50 000? Are they as good as OS? THIS IS WHATS CONFUSING ME!!!! Thanks for the replies! Opensourcemaps don't have a scale as such as they are computer based. 1:50,000 means 1cm on your map = 50,000 cm or 0.5km in reality. But on a computer the screen coul...

I would definitely consider waiting for frozen ground for Bleaberry, High Seat, High Tove and Armboth, not unless you fancy bog snorkeling :D Been there done that - one of our party vanished up to the the thighs! N - you needed to carry on a bit before descending from Birks - then turn right away f...

I've had these saved in my watch list for a while http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400668763636?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT 12 pointers rather than 10. Picked up some Camp ones cheap so have never seriously considered buying - but would be interested to know what the qual...

Good weather again for out last day -- so we set off on a circuit based on Phooooey's walk report here . Although we were going the opposite way around and starting from the Patterdale Hotel Car Park (preferring the steeper ascent and gentle descent of this direction). track (10).gpx We woke in the ...

Wow, you had great weather, and the excellent pics give a powerful impression of the wonderful countryside. I did a similar route last year, but starting at Wasdale Head: Yewbarrow, then Red Pike, Kirk Fell, Great Gable, Great End, Broad Crag, Scafell Pike, Lingmell, and Scafell - supposed to be on...

Weather forecast was for rain and a low cloud base - so a couple of shorts walks were planned with some of the less adventurous in our group. Firstly a leisurely amble around Castle Crag from Rosthwaite track (8).gpx Parking in the NT Car Park we meandered along the valley and up the far side for an...

Several of our group where keen to do Scafell Pike - so good weather on Wednesday provided the opportunity for a trip to Lingmell/Scafell Pike via the Corridor Route with a stop off at Great End on the way back. One of our group was keen to bag the Pike again after a mislead (and legendary) walk whe...

Viewranger pretty much does everything mentioned - their web site allows sharing of routes and you can import gpx files from walk reports here as well. There are lots of free routes available (and some that cost). When finished you upload your tracks to the web site it can automatically sync with yo...

Forecast was not good, but MWIS were saying least rain NE Lakes (esp later) so we headed to Mungrisdale for a Souther Fell, Bannerdale Crags, Bowscale Fell circuit. track (6).gpx Parking just outside the village we headed off to ford the river Glenderamackin and headed up to Souther Fell - given how...
