Beautiful Topos

[Lopez]

Go on then, how many of the topos have you done a route/s on?

41 without double counting routes ;D

(Kind of helps Chamonix is over-represented)

Amazing bit of work. A lof of time will be wasted poring over them

I’ve got 24 that I’ve climbed on (couple of failures) 2 first ascents both in Yosemite…. The Yosemite ones are super detailed, it’s even got our pitch names on it.

I’ve only climbed on 5 of them.

Reminds me that the autumn before last I put a fair bit of work into shooting a huge Panorama of Froggatt, Curbar and Baslow Edges but didn’t stump up the £186 required for the software to create a version that didn’t have a “free trial version” watermark all over it before I forgot all about it. It was pretty epic iirc and I should buy that software.

I though you could do it with photoshop?

If you don't have the full version, I do, can happily have a go.

I think I have 12 (or possibly 13 it gets hazy), again helped by summers in Cham in my youth. Embarrassingly I can't claim either of the Scottish ones.

How many times can I count Mt Blanc?

That got me dredging my distant memory from when I used to love Mt Blanc
For me I think it's:
Gouter ridge up and down
Gouter ridge then traverse to midi
via Mt Maudit Kuffner ridge
Brenva spur
Brenva spur again
Route Major
Innominata ridge
Central Pillar of Freney

I'm sure there are excellent astrophotography software packages for stitching. I did some big composites in Hugin a decade ago. It took some time to learn but worked fine (I shot with a lens having almost perfectly flat field, so it should not be very computational expensive anyway).

Very cool!

Without double counting, 21 for me. Haven't made it to Hoy or Kalymnos yet!

Surprised to see the Three Sisters on there, it was my garden backdrop for a few years.

A disappointing 16 15 on a strictly accounted basis.

However, were some trees removed, my current home would be visible in one of these images. Worth a bonus point?
