Some good tips Chris. Have a look at Harvey’s maps too, different scale and one map covers the whole LD area, plus they are also waterproof 👍

Thanks Paul, much appreciated. I use Harvey's maps for some of the long distance hiking trails. I look forward to seeing you for some Canoeing in the Summer. Chris
