N ~50m until path within re-entrant. Follow that WNW ~500m. Boulders on R. Wall/fence after ~500m. If it runs NW, back SE to corner. Take path NW following re-entrant downhill. Woods on R. Lodge after ~200m. Bearing 270deg for 2-300m until quarry edge. 'Green' path= more up&down & fewer landmarks.

I see what you mean - the pic looks like the contours get tighter the further you drop down the slope, but the map shows the opposite. That's got me a bit stumped then! ๐Ÿค”

elevation = 650m (or maybe a smidge over)

I reached the same conclusion as Rob on this one. Also, ground dropping away on both sides is consistent with A, looking SE. The higher ground beyond the stream feeding the tarn shows steep(ish) rise, then a bit flatter, then steeper again, which is consistent with map.

The cover of Zar always makes me think of Stone Roses / Madchester / Spike island era clothing. Not convinced that was the intended look though.

Well I think the vantage point is from just S of bridge marked on the map, and the bridge we can see is not on map. However, I feel like we might be looking at the three re-entrants running S/SE from between Pinnacle Bield and South Crag, and the angle seems wrong, unless foreshortening going on.

Not especially confident on this one

Same answer /same reasoning as Rob (I hadn't looked at any replies before I reached that conclusion ๐Ÿ˜€). Know that spot well - my in-laws used to leave 500m NW of the -1 spot height.

Sorry to hear this Marty - very much their loss, and best of luck for the future.

Good to see a set of questions on long-running biology experiments on #universitychallenge tonight.

I did wonder if it was from nearer the S>N running stream about 1km SW from there.

I think here, although perhaps would have expected the map to show a stream entering the reservoir at this point, given what looks like an inflow right in front of you.
