There is another type of trig bagging. There is an Amateur Radio award scheme for making two way radio contacts from/to a trig point. There are two types of award one for the people who go to the trig points and one for the others who work them. It is part of a wider award called Worked All Britain (but it actually covers all of the UK so NI is included). There is also a scheme called "Summits on the Air" (SOTA) which is for the summits of mountains (world wide scheme)

As well as summit and trig bagging, hut bagging is a popular tramping (hiking) passtime in NZ. As the name suggests, the aim is to try and visit as many of the extraordinary network of backcountry huts found across Aotearoa.

We actually got at least one trig in my town (East Kilbride) I bagged I suppose just for the sake of getting my drone up when I was at a loose end. I have a feeling there’s one in England that’s below sea level but is on dry land.

Glad to finally know the purpose behind those little stone markers atop many of the hills and mountains I see in your and other hiking channels’ videos. I’d thought they were just markers for the summits, but was curious and impressed that they’d go to the trouble of building them just to mark the summit. Figured there had to be another reason. Great video too.

Hi Stephen, In our regiment we have a special trig map and use these points for their precise positioning when correcting our equipment or when we build firing posts for artillery or when we play the game Russians shot down all the satellites and your are not allowed to use GPS. But unlike you we get to take a 4X4 uphill :)

Great video, very entertaining, the voice over was hilarious. You might be taking the bagging a tad too literal 😂. Loved the being blown horizontal at the trig effect, however if I was being picky the rain overlay should have been horizontal too to match. Anyway, great video 👍 P.S. how many times did you jump over that gate to get all the angles lol
