Re: Route Planning and Navigation iPhone GPS

Hi Christy,

Just to add another option, have a look at Grough Route.

It's pretty good. It keeps track of distance and elevation while you plot your route, it can import/export as GPX, and print Ordnance Survey mapping with route plotted on top. Not free, but not expensive and you can buy it by the month. There is a free trial also.

I used it in conjunction with Where's the Path for both my Challenges, found both of them very handy.

Have a great Challenge!

Mike

Hi Christy,

For knowing which OS map sheet number(s) a given day's route lies on, I use this map of Landranger sheets which shows the boundaries between them.

Enjoy the planning!

Grough route have just more than doubled the price for a monthly subscription. Maybe it is time to look at some of the other options.

Well, there will be little need to worry about finding water and filtering. Especially in the West.
Hopefully see you peeps on route.
And if not.
Have a great TGOC
