An experiment to see how well the Spot3 tracks a road trip. But look carefully, there may even be a walk squeezed in somewhere on the way.

Spot3 Final Pre-Battle Test hillplodder
29th Jan 2015
Ok, it's not the most exciting of walks, but this walk tells me several things about the Spot 3: (1) I now have it set up properly (2) it doesn't like doing the start beacon (3) stay still when sending a check-in message (4) it misses beacons just like old Spot (5) it works indoors

Car Free Walks FlintyRich
A map of walks I have enjoyed without having to use a car to either get to the start or get home from the finish. Over time, I will add details of the public transport that I used, to help those wishing to follow in my footsteps without the use of a car.

Piccadilly Circuit - Geocache Trail GeocacheTrails
18th Jan 2015
This is a great series but it was hard going at this time of the year so you need good boots and a reasonable level of fitness. There are very helpful directions to each cache but the terrain is undulating and muddy, On the other hand of course you will be rewarded with some great countryside and lovely views.

29th Dec 2014
First "Social Hike" and I forgot to turn off the beacon at the end of the walk! I thought it would go off automatically when I finished the track on Viewranger. EDIT: I've realised that by changing the start and finish times I can limit the beacons to the actual walk.

Arctic Trail Hike Tramplite
1st Aug 2014 - 20th Sep 2014
1113km hike north of the Arctic Circle in Norway, Sweden and Finland. The route starts with the 800km Nordkalottleden Trail (Arctic Trail). Then I have two options (both shown on the route map). The east (foul weather route) uses the Kungsleden Trail (The Kings Trail) while the west route is a shorter, but much tougher & remote, hike suggested by Mark Waring (http://oneswedishsummer.weebly.com)
