Don't know if you can do that on hills too?

If there's an unnamed hill somewhere I'll call it "Proprietary Peak" and charge 
people one million pounds to use it. ;-)

Hi Derry,

I'm no lawyer, but if the route name was first used in a copyrighted 
publication and never used before that publication then they *may* have 
claim to it.  Bear in mind that while a route name may not be covered by 
copyright it may be covered by a trademark!?
