Evening Colum42. I am based in Cumbernauld, so not too far from you. Unfortunately, my routine only really allows me to get away on a Saturday. After a few years doing other things, I have got the Munro bagging bug again big time. Having clocked up 150 I am inevitably looking at the further flung Hills so doing a fair bit of travelling! For example this weekend 26/10 probably looking at Loch Lochy or Gairich - Loch Quoich. I dont know if these have appeal to you, or whether you would wish to concentrate on the Southern Highlands to build up your experience as plenty of wonderful hills nearer to hand! Give us a shout if of any interest.

Howdy,

I'm not too far away from you in Bo'ness at all.... generally try to get out at least once a month apart from winter when I pick and choose dates a bit more carefully. I also organise trips with an Edinburgh based group so you are more than welcome to tag along when we have a space. Next trip is 2nd Nov but we are full up, we aim for no more than 15 in a group trip for safety reasons.

cheers,

Brian
