Where has the time gone? Here at Webtogs we cannot believe its been a month since the last winners were announced, but as ever it has been a joy to read the walk reports and soak in the views in the magnificent photographs taken by all of you. The Highlands are completely awe inspiring and your walk reports and photos really show the magnificence of this part of the country.

Its been a real team effort this month to choose the winner and runner up, but we are in agreement with you all that 'A touch of Heaven after a day of purgatory' by jepsonscotland is our favourite and winner of the £60 to spend at Webtogs. It's a great report and a real WH day out. We love to hear that readers are meeting up and walking together.

The runner up and winner of £30 to spend at Webtogs is 'North Glen Shiel skyline between buses (and a WH celebrity)' by malky_c. Like many of you, we are impressed that you managed to use the buses and complete the walk in time to pick up a return bus without too much waiting about. (we agree that it is ridiculous that dogs arent allowed on the buses - is this policy, or just a particular driver?) your report was entertaining with great photography and meeting a fellow WH walker at a summit must really makes a good walk better.

We are looking forward to hearing about all you October outings already.

Also glad I have now looked at jepsonscotland's report, which I missed originally. Some classic high camping there. Congratulations 8)
