Stanage Edge Trig Point.

For our none UK friends you might often hear us talking about 'trig points.' Essentially these are white markers at the highest point of our hills and traditionally were used as triangulation points for mapping and distance purposes.

 

In the normal way of all things UK based, not every peak has one but it has become a popular past time for hikers and walkers to tick them off, and of course tap their hand on the top of them once there. This one is on Stanage Edge in the Peak District, one of the UK's National Parks.
