Sat in Son1's new flat in Brompton having moved a load of his stuff from home before he starts new job after the Bank Holiday. Less than an hour from Glenridding, Eden Valley nearby, Hadrian's Wall on his doorstep. Am I jealous - of course I am 🤣🤣 |

Thanks for all the recommendations by the way. I haven't responded to them all to avoid clogging up the thread, but have pinned a few so I can look them up as needed

If you do decide to invest in the Fellrangers, please be sure you are buying the up-to-date version. Cicerone did a complete revision of them when the boundaries of the National Park changed and as a result they are grouped differently. As an example, this is one of the new ones: amazon.co.uk Old version: amazon.co.uk |

Wonder if worries around safety have led to this being dismantled? cumbriacrack.com |

Could be. It was at the top of a climb graded m.diff and although you could reach it from the south without any kind of climbing/scramble, it looks like the potential for further accidents lead to it being dismantled.

The anti-clockwise version of The Lap is in progress today. No Fetchies have declared themselves as entrants. live.opentracking.co.uk It looks as if the male ACW record may fall shortly. It’s currently over an hour slower than the May record. |

After my 40 year round of Wainwrights and my wife's slightly quicker 6.5 days one, we are now subjecting our newly acquired dog to a round. She has now done 36 tops since the beginning of February. Are dogs allowed on our list? |

We’re off to Eskdale for a week on Saturday. We were hoping to tick off quite a few, including the Scafells. Sadly I don’t think my knees will let me.

Are dogs allowed on our list? We spoke to someone last week who knew of a dog that had done all the Munro’s. I reckon dogs can do Wainwrights too. |
