Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Confused by the Wainwright notifications - I've got 9 I think, but when I've had a notification and clicked on it, the page it takes me to says I don't have any?

Bug there somewhere. I got the Wainwright notification too, and I definitely didn’t go to the Lake District today.

Re the uncategorised hill - I think there are multiple ones in the DB - I’ll have a look though.

Fetch a question regards the heading when you click on a Point you have visited, eg here's one from todays run


The grey "type of hill" symbol, in this case Trig Points, looks like it's clickable, ie when you move your mouse over it it changes from the pointer to a hand. But nothing happens if you click. Is this meant to take you to a page showing all your Trig Points ?

I assumed that the notification was indicating some sort of additional point claimed in any category. I got it when all my old data was added yesterday, but hadn't climbed a Wainwright for 10 plus years before joining Fetch.

I had manually added 2 Wainwrights - they had disappeared for a few days and I was at 0, but they are now back - I assumed it was because they had been re-added

Re: the notifications, I just had the two the wrong way round. They should work as intended from now on.

Just on the subject of Wainwrights ..... I've dug out RB's document that details the locational differences between true summits (i.e. as defined in the DBoBH) and the Wainwright summit. If anyone would like a copy, please fmail me with your external email address.

How intriguing.

I knew there was a difference of opinions on actual hill summits. I guess most people head to the obvious feature rather than actual peaks and when it can be so hard for the naked eye to deduce, who can blame them.

But (unless I'm reading that data wrongly) those differences in distances are something I didn't expect.

About This Thread

Maintained by um
Given the auto bagging recognition developents, first Wainwrights and now all sorts, opening up a thread for general discussion and whatever comes next.
Fetch's page : fetcheveryone.com/points.php
Fetch's blog and background : fetcheveryone.com/blog/3/2023/2/463428
A note from the lawyers : Existence or reference to a point doesn't imply it's necessarily safe or legal to access it.

And hopefully leave the Lake District Lovers thread for Lake District topics.
