Memory Map Route Cards

Memory Map
allows you to produce what it calls Route Cards, these are
essentially an HTML page containing a visual elevation
profile of the route, a high level map of the route and more
importantly, a list of all the waypoints that make up the
route, including the OS grid reference, heading to next
waypoint, distance to next waypoint etc.

These route cards cover the 12 day schedule
originally devised by AW. Only the first and last

Coast to Coast:
Wainwright's long distance path in Anquet file
format. Courtesy of
Mike "The Square", he includes the following
notes: "Anquet file (.adf
using the new version of Anquet). This takes in our
actual route less the GPS deviations and our own
small navigational errors! There are 11 routes, one
for each day. I have named each waypoint a different
name in case anyone wants to download them onto a
GPS" |
