The YouAreEmpty.net Database contains details of all peaks in the UK over 150m / 500ft. You can browse the database using all the popular tick lists, including Munro's and Wainwright's. In addition to this you can search for peaks via geographical area.
Work is underway on version 2 of this database which will allow users to log which mountains they have climbed and submit pictures and comments for each peak. Watch this space!
Finally thanks must go to Chris Crocker and Graham Jackson for developing the Database of British Hills, which has been used to provide the underlying data for this section of the site.
