13 June 2026
- MajorMountain Rescue hazard information. Fell pages now carry a hazard rating and a Hazard & Incident Information section — danger spots, common causes and honest advice — compiled from published Mountain Rescue reports. Rolling out the most accident-prone fells first, with more added each week.
- MajorA guide page for every fell. Around 600 individual, search-engine-friendly pages — every Wainwright, Outlying Fell and Birkett — plus a full sitemap so they're easy to find.
- MajorRenamed to Lake District Fell Bagger. A clearer name for what the site does (it was previously Birkett Bagger).
- MediumKey Information & personal notes. Each fell now opens with a plain-English summary, plus my own notes where I've been up there.
- MediumOther fells in this region. Every fell page now links to the neighbouring Wainwrights for easy trip planning.
- MediumAbout page. A bit about the project and why it exists.
- MinorHazard chip & quick links. A colour-coded hazard tag below each fell name; the fell list now links straight to each fell's page; the parking section is now labelled Potential parking.
- MinorFooter & housekeeping. Added a Terms, Conditions & Cookies page, a Report a Problem link, a last-updated date, a changelog and a site icon (favicon).
12 June 2026
- MajorStrava hikes on every fell. Each fell page shows my own walks over that summit — the route drawn on the map, with distance, ascent, time, pace and photos.
- MediumAutomatic updates. New hikes sync in automatically each week, and site changes publish themselves — so the site stays current without manual effort.
10 June 2026
- MajorSite launched. For every Wainwright and Outlying Fell, the Birketts you can bag on the same walk — with free topo maps, suggested parking, bus routes from Penrith, Ambleside and Windermere, and a live 7-day summit weather forecast.
- MediumAccurate hill data. Fell lists built from the authoritative Database of British and Irish Hills — 214 Wainwrights, 116 Outlying Fells and 541 Birketts.
