THE 214 CHECKMAP
A wall map of every Wainwright. One fell at a time.
All 214 fells on a single framed map — designed to plan your round, track every summit, and look good enough to keep on the wall long after the last one is coloured in.
Printed, mounted and framed in Greater Manchester. Free UK delivery.
WAINWRIGHT TICK LISTS
This one looks like the Lake District.
There are plenty of Wainwright checklists. The one I had when I was working through the round did its job. But none of them really felt like the thing they were meant to celebrate. So I made my own.
The Wainwrights aren’t just names in boxes. They’re ridges and valleys, rough paths and wet socks, early starts and glowing evenings and the occasional navigational disaster. I wanted something that looked more like the Lake District itself — something you’d actually want on the wall, not filed away in a drawer once you’re done.
Three things at once
Most Wainwright maps do one job. This one was designed to do three.
Plan your round
See how all 214 fells cluster across the Lake District. Spot natural groupings, plan routes between sections, understand the spread of the whole round before you set off.
Track every summit
Colour each fell as you reach it. The map fills gradually — a visual record of the round that means something long after the last summit is ticked off.
Worth keeping on the wall
Framed and ready to hang. Looks good before you start, satisfying while you’re going, and earns its place as a finished record once you’re done.
WORKS WITH
Pairs with the contour maps as a companion piece.
The contour maps show individual mountains in detail — each ridge, each valley, the exact shape of one fell. The CheckMap shows all 214 and where they sit across the whole Lake District. The two things are designed to work together: the close-up and the big picture, hanging side by side.
WHY I MADE IT
I’ve had a Dorrigo map on my wall for years. It still wasn’t quite right.
I’ve done all 214 Wainwrights. I’ve been wild camping for 34 years. I’m a Mountain Leader. And I used a 3D relief map on my office wall the entire time I was working through the round — for planning, for context, for the quiet satisfaction of knowing where everything sits.
But it was never designed as a Wainwrights map. It doesn’t include every fell, and I couldn’t find anything that showed all 214 on a single wall map I actually wanted to look at. So I drew one instead.
It took a while. The kind of while where a sensible person might have started stamp collecting. But the map is now ready to frame, and I think it was worth the wait.
Hi Chris, I’m looking to get a relief map of Scotland covering all the Munros if possible – it’s for my Dad who turns 80, who climbed a number of Munros and used to have a map he pinned with all his climbs, but unfortunately it perished. Is this something you could do or do you have any contacts who could do this. Any help would be massively appreciated. Cheers Keith
I have a couple of good options, Keith. I could design you a topographical map bespoke to your dad’s ‘journey’ or I could find the map he would have used (guessing it was a few years ago), could mark all the summits on it, have it printed and frame it.
