“Munro Summit Identification Maps: Cairngorms”
(Sheet map)
Your summit companion for hill walks in the Cairngorms, Monadh Liaths and Drumochter. You know the feeling, you've spent 2 hours getting to the top of the Munro and the first thing you think about is cheese sandwiches. The second is the view. Just what is that hill over there? The next thing you know you've unfolded your OS map and it's turned into a mainsail, ripped in half and in the ensuing performance you've kicked over your coveted flask of tea and your map now resembles a primary 5 art project. Of course the hill you were looking at turns out to be off the edge of the OS map anyway. Bummer. In comes Summit Map. We knew we couldn't be the only people who wanted to know whether we were looking out at Tiree or Canna or if that hill over there was Ben Vorlich or Ben More, so all we had to do was make a map that told us these things and was a few steps further evolved than our primary school paper mache creations. Well it took a while and some terribly arduous field work, but here it is, the waterproof, durable Munro Summit Identification Map. Where would we be looking without it? This compact map makes identifying summits, lochs and islands in the Scottish Highlands easy. Use the main pop up map to identify nearby peaks and the smaller map to identify more distant peaks, mountain ranges and islands. All Munros (Scottish mountains over 3000 feet) are listed. This map is completely waterproof and highly durable - just what you need in our wild climate. We care about the environment too so we've made it from a special polyethelene material that can be recycled along with your plastic milk bottles. Use of a compass in conjunction with this map will aid feature identification so we've provided some simple compass bearing instructions underneath the main map. www.summitmap.co.uk
