Yorkshire born and bred but now looking to the Scottish hills and culture. Formerly land surveyor, GIS, digital 3D, Virtual Bradford and flood risk at CBMDC.
Also Munro bagging (202 / 282).
Is it as rewarding as it used to be?
Back in the day, would have the list of 277, no guidebook, set off after work, sleep in back of a Mk2 Escort and make my way purely using a 1:50000 map - a real sense of achievement.
But actually, the rain is still 💦 , the wind is 💨 and just as 🥶
So yes, it is 😄

Have you considered mounting the QR codes in situ? (although I guess you’d have to forego the £2).
I was involved with such a scheme at Saltaire, delivered by the University of Bradford Visualising Heritage group and Bradford Council.
