That's proper walking Nick!
As for figuring out where I am on a map, well I cheat these days, I use a Satmap loaded with full UK 1:50000 mapping. I still carry the paper map and a compass. The Satmap tells me where I am, the paper and compass tell me where to go next.
addeejay, Ime is usually done with Narnain and The Cobbler, but yeah plenty of folks, well the really keen ones, will combine Ime with Vane but bear in mind it will quite possibly be rough walking. It's also a fair drop between the two.
Also it looks as if the cloud will be down on Saturday, so you'll need nifty navigation to avoid the steep bits and hitting crags etc between those two peaks.
Have fun.
