  1. picplz is shutting down in early July - please make sure any linked photos are transferred to other services before then!
  2. I have just featured "Jubilee Backpacking in the Highlands" by @alistairpooler - bit.ly/JWnIZn
  3. I have just featured "The Chartreuse prairies under the Grande and Petite Vache" by @andybryant - bit.ly/JWnDox
  4. @christophamthor yeah that is a problem - some media like videos, audio and photos (via a camera) can be posted later with gpx file
  5. @nickbramhll if you have your spot map sorted, then it is dead easy to link to SH - you just need the spot map url!
  6. @nickbramhll yes it is on the list (when I manage to find some time!)
  7. @christophamthor if you have any feedback from your training - happy to discuss what we can do to improve!
  8. It is my favourite monthly statistic.... the number of bagged peaks on Social Hiking in May was 187 (up 25%)
  9. @nickbramhll great stuff Nick - look forward to following along!
  10. @Si_Bailey no sleep?! ;)
  11. @Si_Bailey very much planned! Just not had time :(
  12. @martlawton yes it should be - I think it is still x-y distance though not taking into account vertical distance.
  13. @martlawton on the do to list is replacing this with a more accurate method of working out distance!
  14. @martlawton great stuff! SH does some duplicate removals and uses a not quite exact way of calculating distance.
  15. RT @webtogs: It's our #walkwednesday route - blog.webtogs.co.uk/2012/05/30/wal… - Corfe Castle 2 day hiking route via SW Coastal Path <- great SH map!
  16. Follow @OEmagazine on the Coast to Coast raising money for @helpforheroes - ht.ly/beMtV #c2c
