Hi Guys,

It’s my turn to choose the Walk Reports this month and it seems the fair weather is getting a lot of you back out on the hills. I recently took a day off to go exploring around Durdle Door. We were really lucky with the weather so enjoyed some of the surrounding walks.

With the nights drawing out ever so slightly I feel a real excitement for Spring that is so nearly with us.

The winner this month is Dooterbang's report called Horned up in Torridon - Losing My Virginity!!! I really enjoyed the photos, especially the ones of the sea stacks and the sun set from Redpoint Beach. The weather was really shining on you. A big well done to Kerri for using Crampons for the first time.

Runner up for February is Basscadet with She Cried More, More, More..
The first walk was a real nail biter but so worth it for the scenery. Not setting off until 11am for the second walk seems to of given the weekend a great balance.

With Spring in the air we have taken our first delivery of the new Keen Footwear Range for Spring/Summer 2013. There are some really exciting colours and styles.
