Rough sketch map of Maja Lagojvet area

Rough sketch map of Maja Lagojvet area

A rough hand-made map of the upper part of Grbajski Zastan area. Distance proportions are not kept, certainly many details are not precise, it just gives a general overview. Some names are from available maps, some others were told to me by local shepherds. Their spelling is not standardised in any way and there may be several varieties of each name. Also some peaks may have both an Albanian and a Serbian name. Names of some peaks, cols and valleys are unknown to me. Peak heights are given based on available maps and sources and can be very inaccurate. Height of Maja Lagojvet in brackets is as I measured it. Blue - passable cols (often with scrambling). Red - impassable cols (would require climbing/abseiling techniques, although some are accessible from one side only). Grey - cols of uncertain or unknown passability (some are known to be accessible from one side). Green dotted lines - most convenient passages known to me, sometimes along shepherds' paths, sometimes requiring scrambling. Use it just for orientation and not as a cartographic reference. Any corrections are welcome - please comment!

Re: Extremely Useful

Dzieki! Ale nie polegaj na niej jak na Zawiszy, jest tylko dla ogolnego rozeznania... For general orientation only, lots of your own assessment necessary!

Re: Extremely Useful

Sure. You've put it clearly below the map.
Thank you for creating valuable resources, which refers to the other things - such as truly informative route descriptions - on your new (and old) page(s).

Very valuable beta, thanks for doing and sharing it! A N sign would come handy, plus maybe peak heights (I guess they're quite unfixed yet but anyway).

(I'd be so glad to be employed as field-worker doing a Prokletije-map, ha ha...)

Re: North

Thanks for your remarks, Peter!
I drew it so that north goes up but I can add it, as well as the peak heights (which are far from reliable as you noticed :)
I haven't worked it out yet, can I replace a photo within the same 'photo page' on SP without changing all the settings?
cheers,
k

Re: North

Yes, it's possible, click edit on the pic's page, and change the file, then submit. I used this method several times for updating the sketch maps for the Carpathians and High Tatras pages.

Re: North

Done! Somehow I can't see the changes on the photo page but only when I click it to open.

Re: North

I've learnt sometimes it takes a good few hours for the changes to appear on the screen.

It depends on the caching behaviour (or more precisely: settings) of your browser.
