^ that's actually a good point. The scar-like ones are a bit "man's dominion over nature" and you're going to either like or dislike that. I confess I've only really been thinking about them in the sense of what they'd be like to climb, rather than how they fit into the surrounding landscape. The Honister Pass pics that Sanddancer posted look right for that reason, because they're almost a natural part of the valleys, rather than being purely "look what we did!"
