I'm quite gutted at this mistake because we print up to 200 of these routes a year, and this is the first time we've got it wrong," said Procter.

If you're going to make a mistake make it a good one, I always say. Directing your subscribers to fall off the highest mountain in Britain is pretty good.

Procter said he was confident that the experienced walkers who make up most of Trail's 36,000 circulation would not be endangered by the error.

Killing off your readers; not the best way to maximize circulation (of the magazine).

I'm hopelessly North Americacentric, but I'm surprised Britain has anything high enough to be called a peak.
