[Closed] wheres this cairn(?)

Allen crags then?

booooo, not allen crags 🙁

any other suggestions?

Ha, I think he was lost in the mist 🙂

If not Allen Crags then it must be the other bit that Whitestone mentioned above. I'd say it was taken marginally further south than the first one and slightly higher. Hard to say in the mist though. I think it all counts as Glaramara 😉

you mean point 721?

Possibly.

from an album hes called 'great langdale'.

What was the answer to the last one? Was it point 721

thanks chaps.

paul, he says it was the point on the link ^^^ just above at 783.

next......

hes actually titled this set of pictures as from being 'down south', and includes pics of basingstoke canal, 'kingfisher on the quay' which a quick google shows is in mythchett, camberley, plus pics with beefeaters etc so a trip down the big smoke it looks like.

[img] ?oh=5aab817f3bfb78bc197811d80878e1be&oe=5AACF92B[/img]

couple of pretty impossible ones but you never know......

[img] ?oh=3261b54cdf1bd44ae66c4bff804efffb&oe=5AB0301E[/img]

this one, ok its just pitch black but he accompanied it by saying that he "blagged" my way in with my flask, (They wanted to confiscate it ). I was given permission to take 1 photo only, (Nobody else was). The bloody flash wouldn't work....."

[img] ?oh=fe9d652169b3f50c7113ded6da79a799&oe=5A6AC020[/img]

an educated guess would be the crown jewels or somethings you reckon? where else might he be banned from taking a hipflask in and only taking one pic?

kudos points for anyone who gets those last two.....

1 Windsor castle
2 is Farnborough shopping centre ?

lovely work gents, any ideas for t'others?

Dark one will be somewhere in Windsor Castle as well, the text talks about restoration work completed in November 1997 following the fire five years earlier - st george's chapel or the state rooms, where photography is not normally allowed.

The other one is probably the gents there. The order of uploads on his photo sharing page will tell you.

I'm not sure if you noticed, but there's more detail in the dark photo than immediately obvious - I just had a quick play with the contrast, I'm sure others could do better

bluddy hell you guys are amazing!! id never have known! i even thought of not posting it and just saying 'a black picture' plus his message. good job i didnt 🙂

cant quite read that, but i assume youre both seeing the same thing, i can just make out a plaque to do with the 50th anniversary of the queens wedding. i cant make out anything do do with restoration work, is that right at the top where its a bit darker?

the toilet one...... its sandwiched between a pic of him stood with a beefeater (is that the castle or the tower?) and then a shop called 'jersey pearl' in windsor. windsor castle bogs do we think?

and good work with the bull!

thanks again, excellent work!

The plaque is in the Lantern Lobby of Windsor Castle. It's where the fire started.

Tell him he's deviating from the "cairn" part of the deal and that he needs to go somewhere hilly that isn't blummin' 5 miles from Langdale
😉

Is this a multiplayer game?
If so, I'm in....

❓

Where's the hipflask?

PS Simon Howe, NYM. ?

**** me that was quick! You lot are good at this.

Also, much to my shame I don't own a hip flask 😳

blimey, another mates getting in on the action now asking where hes been! sorry, bit more work for you 😀

hes asked all his facebook mates to guess the 4 locations so ill post the pics. one of ems been correctly guessed as ingleborough cave so thats a clue as to the whereabouts....

[img] [/img]
this is the ingleborough one i think....

Tell him he's deviating from the "cairn" part of the deal and that he needs to go somewhere hilly that isn't blummin' 5 miles from Langdale

he does get about a bit, goes to the lakes most weekends and is working through the wainrights i believe.

thanks again, really impressive work!

hes given some clues.....

"the falls are in a village named after a junction. the stone building is on a trail and the Scar is just north of Ingleborough Cave and South of Gapping Gil"

any ideas?

I think Trollers Ghyll/Gill is the scar

is that defo mate? think theyre all sposed to be walking distance from ingleborough. that looks t'other side of the moors, but if youre sure.....

Trow Gill is the gorge (Trollers is over near Appletreewick, but it's easy to mix them up)
The little building with the crosses is a small folly on the track from Clapham to Ingleborough Cave.
The river is Clapham Beck near the village.

Oops yes Trow Gill. I was up there a few weeks ago..doh!

lovely. i thank you all once more 🙂

Yeah, Clapham Junction (railway)

think he's been to the borrowdale area.....

thanks 🙂

Squirrel is in Hope Park Keswick. Not sure about the log, there are loads of them around.

thanks a lot. yeah, thats the trouble with the 'tree' ones isnt it. that pic is between these two in his photos, will that mean the pic will have been taken somewhere between them?

The split rock is on the shore of Derwen****er- the millennium stone, and the people are probably avoiding getting wet feet a bit further south in the lakeshore path. I'm trying and failing to recall a specific coiny log in that area.....just go with Derwen****er lakeshore path and see if that's a good enough answer!

any ideas for this one?

[img] ?oh=1f5434dc94e6d34b494d590251fbece2&oe=5AF7750D[/img]

Outside pub in threlkekd?

5th tee Keswick golf course ?

castlerigg stone circle just outside keswick

Good call that

thank you very much 🙂

hope these turn out ok, new forum etc etc......

apparently this time hes down south again, maybe farnborough/ surrey area.  other pics in his album show a place called 'kingfisher on the quay' and some toilets that seem embedded in canoe shells if that means owt to anyone?

thanks a lot 🙂

back in the lakes again.........

this ones going to be tricky....... hes not interested in the view, he wants the room number!!  we've done it before, can we do it again?

thanks chaps 🙂

The engine above is a Whittle jet engine, presumably at the Farnborough Air Sciences Trust.

Of the last group the first is looking up Oxendale towards Crinkle Crags

The one of the room: It's the room above the bar at the Old Dungeon Gill hotel. No idea of the actual room number.

The last one is from the west shore of Derwen****er looking towards Keswick with Skiddaw behind.

I think it's Borrowdale YHA - the boot photo
