Good spread of runs that. Fan Fawr and Fan Frynych are always quiet. Andy B on here puts a good race on over there at the end of August, won't be running it myself this year but use it as a training route when I can as it's a cracker.

I visited this one a few times last week.
not a stud mark or trail shoe tread to be seen.
I'll be disappointed if nobody gets this nameless spot height...

Blimey, not much to go on (I won't look the number up) but it looks Dales-esque to me.
There's a clue in the background left of the trig!Quote:

I thought I knew most of the towers/follies in the Dales but don't recognise this at all. Thought it might be Carlesmoor at first but it's heather clad moorland up there.Quote:

More clues may be needed. I'm on the way to it here...

Sure I've seen Stolly's dog up there somewhere
Down Yarnbury way?
Close enough, New Pasture Edge- SE 014664, very seldom visited given the weight of local knowledge on here!Quote:

Looks a bit like Meugher.
Here is one that is seldom visited despite being on a very prominent feature in the landscape: it is on private land with no PROWs. However, there used to be public access each Whitsun bank holiday Monday. That is the day of the Oaks-in-Charnwood Country Fair, which used to include a cross-country race which was actually steeper than a lot of Category C races in the FRA calendar (about 11km and about 240m of ascent/descent). It visited the summit of Ives Head, going straight up the slope in the picture (first link below), but a little further to the left.

Ooops!
Right way round now i hope...
Not Meugher by the way
No idea. What area is it in?
North of Hadrian's Wall is as much of a clue you're going to get….

Cheviot?
Not quite…:)
So where am I then? The trig and the cairn are on adjacent hillocks with some really well known hills in the back ground

Clearly I know the answer but in the interests of the competition I'll allow non FB friends to keep the quiz going....;)Quote:
