I'm loving this thread too. Great descriptions as well, and really informative.
I've descovered geocaching (thanks to some members here) so am discovering lots of beautiful spots I'd never go to and looking at old familiar ones in new ways.
Today's walk was up May Hill which we though would just be another tree covered hill, like so may here, but it has a plateau at the top with a fir tree copse at the top and almost 360 degree panoramic views all around, the Severn, the Forest of Dean, the Malverns, Welsh Hills and across to the Cotswolds. There were a couple of pally black labradors at the top to greet us too, perfect.
