It would be nice to know how people are getting on visiting Hardys, and I would love to receive details of people’s visits. I will be able to keep the bagging totals on the Bag Totals page up to date, as people contact me with these details.
I will have to take on trust baggers’ starting Hardy totals, but I will need some basic verifying details of each subsequent Hardy visit before I can update baggers’ bagging totals in the list. The Contact page tells you how to submit your starting totals and subsequent updates. For practical purposes there needs to be a minimum qualifying starting total for inclusion in the Bag Totals: your starting total needs to be thirty or more, including at least one from each of the four countries within the UK. With each bagger’s entry I will include the area where they live, and their e-mail address as long as they have given their permission for me to do so. This will enable for example people in the same area to contact each other if they wish, or to seek advice on visiting particular Hardys. The Bag Info page lists the availability of Visit Notes from Hardys I have been to. If you send me your visit notes for other Hardys you've visited, I will consider them for inclusion on the Bag Info page (with a credit to the author), to share bagging knowledge and experiences. E-mail them as on the Contacts page, titled VISIT NOTES. There are 342 Hardys, 135 of which constitute my original core list. The Bagging Table below shows how these break down by country, category and core. This mix provides several possibilities for bagging targets, depending on where you live, what your particular interests are and how active you are.
The Bag Totals page records how baggers are progressing towards these targets (remember my prizes!).
* includes Channel Islands and Isle of Man To help baggers keep their own record of their Hardy bagging progress, a bagging record is now downloadable (in Word format (2003) so you can adapt it for your own needs if you wish).

Because the criteria for including or rejecting hill ranges are unavoidably subjective (just wait for the Posting feature!), the Hardys High Points Book includes two lists of hill ranges which I have not felt able to include formally for one reason or another.
So, for completeness, these two lists are provided below (as one amalgamated list), with each High Point marked as "reserve" or "rejected", depending on whether I have yet obtained sufficient information to decide on a hill range status against my own criteria (as stated in the Book). I have in fact promoted one "reserve" hill range to Hardy status a while ago, after a visit.
