UKC veteran seeks greener fields...

[exiledclimber]

Hi, I've long been a poster on UKClimbing, but since I no longer post over there I thought I would give this forum a try!

I've been walking and climbing for eight years now, in Scotland for five years. I moved to Glencoe in 2008 during a spell of high enthusiasm for roped climbing, and did a lot of it, but eventually settled back down to my old favourite activities of backpacking, hillwalking, scrambling, and general low-grade mountaineering. I'm not really a Munro bagger but since leaving Glencoe I'm keen to use my future trips to the hills to go to new places I haven't been to before. It may be sacrilege but I think it's safe to say that I'm bored of the Glencoe/Ben Nevis area!

Currently based in Lincolnshire so not climbing or walking as often as I did, but just as enthusiastic as ever.

Hi, and apologies for outing you on your first post

Looking forward to your info and photos. I think a few forum members here already follow your blog.

It's just about acceptable to be bored of Glencoe/Glen Nevis. I spent a lot of great summer holidays there, but once I moved to Scotland I couldn't wait to go and explore some other areas instead. I ignored it for a few years, and now I miss it again (It's pretty close by, but Torridon etc are closer, so I don't visit often)

Hi

[HighlandSC]

Welcome.

Nowt wrong with ditching UKC. I did that about 5 years ago

There are quite a few more UKC exiles going about Hillwalking Forums.
If you visit a not too disimilar forum to this one, you might even bump into the UKC legend - Norrie
