on your profile above your name, there's a bar with 'your account details'. One of the options is Upload Profile Pic. From there, pick one from your computer. Fetch has to approve it, e.g it'll be rejected if it's got 'marathon foto' across it. |

We can see one... You and some rather alpine-looking pointy things in the background?

anyway, back on topic, can anyone recommend a reasonably priced GPS unit that would be suitable? I can use map and compass but would like one for back up, around £100 mark would be about what I can afford

You get a decent map and a roadbook and its not too (!) hard to navigate. I left my Satmap at home last tinme and was fine, off one weekend of recceing.

tbf Girlslim there are so many doing the 50 (over 500 i think) you shoud not get to lost (well anna did in the last couple of miles but lets forget about that.) As 2ff says you get a map and roadbook . The map for me is more for a general overview - the book should be read as you go along.It's very good. That said, for the 100 i was quite impressed by these cheaper gps hand helds that some folk have like this , buy.garmin.com would make a lovely christmas present ... (anna) oh and i thnik i have some photos of the most of the route to ambleside here. . picasaweb.google.com If i was going ot recce any of the 50 i think i would do as much of the last bit as possible as thats what you may do in the dark. |
