As usual I was totally organised for yesterday’s activation of Whernside and printed out masses of detail about the summit before the day.
However, also as usual, I forgot to take all this to the summit! While throughout the activation I insisted I was on Whernside (NP-004) - at a couple of points there was confusion about whether this was Great Whernside (NP-008).
Whernside G/NP-004 is indeed correct and apologies if there was any confusion around this one… I have the photo evidence of the trig point just in case anyone doubts this! ;)))
I think the confusion mostly stems from the fact that before the activation I didn’t realise the ‘great’ version existed and therefore when someone said “you’re up Great Whernside then” I didn’t correct them. It was only when, half way through the activation that 2E0RWB (I think) pointed me in the right direction that the potential issue clicked with me!
Many thanks,
