I have no idea if I found the right tops or not- I touched multiple cairns to be sure :)

When I was Wainwright bagging I just put the coordinates in a Geko 201.

That would require more planning and sticking to plans than I manage- and I’m still amazed when my route on hare shows me I went more or less where I thought I did :)

Fell wandering is great. I used to love doing big solo walks and thinking Scafell Pike is over there or I’ll bag Base Brown while I’m up here

That’s how Gt Dodd happened- I thought about staying on the range to Threlkeld and trying to get a taxi back to my car :)

To be honest I downloaded every Wainwright summit coordinate onto the Geko 201. It was a simple device, I miss it now.
