The Twelve Trigs of Christmas…

A little informal competition for the Christmas and New Year period

• Visit as many trigs as possible starting on Saturday December 18 and finishing on Sunday January 9.
• Score points based on their height and remoteness (see scoring system below).
• Submit your trigs points to me tom.brunt1@btinternet.com and I’ll sort out the scoring. Let me know the date of your visit, and for obscure or un-named trigs please include a grid reference. I’ll update a leader board every few days.
• Trigs can be visited by any human-powered means.
• Anyone doing the Crookstone Crashout on Sunday will automatically get off to a good start with 999 points. Similarly, the Trigger could make for a very apt conclusion to your campaign…·

  Scoring
  system:

  ·
  The score for each trig is the product of its
  height (in metres) and the minimum distance to a tarmac road. So, for example:

  	Height / m	Road distance / km	Score
  Blackden	590	1.69	997
  Stanage High Neb	458	1.00	458
  Outer Edge	419	3.25	1361

  ·
  Best (i.e. highest scoring) twelve trigs count,
  and are certainly not restricted to the Dark Peak.

  ·
  A trig can only count once towards your total
  score.

  ·
  Bonus points might be awarded at certain stages
  of the competition – keep an eye open for these…
