Michael Eatson can yo redo the access topo with the yellow maybe in white and a larger font? and maybe increase the line width of the routes a couple of points too?
In reply to Michael Eatson can yo redo by cragrat
I can read the yellow lines on my PC monitor no problems, so perhaps cragrat is saying how about modernising topos so people with smart phones can read them?
Anyway I can't see where the bivi is on the topo, and I do not understand the description because I am uncertain of the aspect the main pic was taken from.
Is the bivi just below the summit on the other side of the main topo? I'd hate to be looking around for the bivi that was that high up without not knowing what side of the mountain to start looking.
