Description
While clearing the data off my gps receiver before a trip to the Alps, I found this track of a walk from Belstone to Cosdon Hill last September on there, which I had never got round to download.
This is the track of my walk out to try and find more about the possible stone circle I found several years ago. My car was parked at Belstone, top left, crossed the river Taw, and followed my gps up the northwest slopes of Cosdon Hill. Once I got there, I went south to find, and thus rule out, the known and recorded cairn, before going back to the site.

Ah - I didn't open this one last night Martyn. Looked at the first one, but because it took a while to open and close (and it was late), didn't see the others. Must say, this is the first time I've ever seen a record of a gps track. Quite useful, eh?

This is a very interesting display. In a larger sense this diagram reveals how topography can push us to walk in directions that discribe features that we are unaware of until we see the birdseye view. In this case, the captain knew that he was walking around a circular feature bordered by stones and we see it as he described it. But, I wonder, and this is really the thrust of my comment, If he were able to download all of the data from each of his meanderings, what it might reveal. Thank You for providing such wonderful stuff for us to look at.
