Mark, do you mean the WOTA summits that were the first (‘oldest’) to be activated or the ones that have gone the longest time since they were last activated?

In any case, I have to take issue with the ‘Last Activated On’ dates on some of them. I’ve activated at least five of them all more recently than 2017.

For example: LDO-015 Caw - G8CPZ/P on Mon 6 Jul 2020

Are they actually ‘First Activated On’ dates?

Edit Update:
Taking the Caw’s example, here’s the previous activations for Caw and “M0AYB 07/05/2016” isn’t even in the list:

Could be Andy, I’ll check the data later

I’ve updated the list Andy. I think I was looking at a legacty column that isn’t updated any more on the main summits table.

I nearly went to Caw Fell the other day…does that count? I could see it if that helps, just ran out of time

Spoke with @g1ohh today. She has a most wanted list, maybe need a bit of that as well

I might look at doing the top two over the weekend - I had previously attempted this and ended up just doing one of the others close by.
