Bundle of Files to download

The Bundle

As usual I like to create a bundle of files which can be downloaded.
To make life easy these are zipped into a single file. So one click will get you everything. Updated 14 Dec 2014 to fix some minor map errors.

Within SNT-Bundle-v1.zip there is a Contents.txt file which you can read.

The contents are divided into two folders
  • Taken with me which are files I prepared before the walk.
    • Files for GPS - Tracks, Notes, and POI.
    • Files for Kindle - Track notes and summary spreadsheets as PDFs
    • Backup GPS files on a micro SD card. A wise precaution.
  • Created by me which are files I created after the walk.
    • A snapshot of the Google map that I created. Find it here.
    • A list of Waypoints where I camped with co-ordinates.
    • A Kindle version of this blog may appear in version 2 once it is stable.
    • A PDF version may also be available for those without Kindle.

Technical note

If you are creating a blog yourself and want a Google Drive file to download immediately when a link is clicked (as opposed to the document first opening and then having to click download as a separate action) you need to change the link as below:

The sharing link for this bundle is:
 https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B25CQPiUwB5dcEpZT2dhaDhJMjA/view?usp=sharing 

The immediate download link is:
 https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B25CQPiUwB5dcEpZT2dhaDhJMjA&export=download 

Obviously you will have to use the ID particular to your file.
