Well done in the conditions! Its all about the weather on the day...Beinn Mhic Mhonaidh was, for me, one of the best hill days I have experienced (and that is saying a lot!) Ascended on a glorious day of sunshine, warmth, amazing visibility, great birds and other mountain wildlife, after a superb ca...

This is magnificent and very enjoyable writing!! I love it as it takes me back to the the adventures of Scottish hillwalking in all seasons and conditions, in out desperate but marvellous Munro and Corbett trips. Graeme Dewar!... you have entertained me so much! Keep going and never stop. :clap: Tha...

This is one of the most brilliant exchanges among hillwalkers that I have ever read!...and gives me hope for mankind! Takes me straight back to evenings sharing hill stories in hostels after days out in our glorious Highlands.

It is certainly not easy to see much of the Falls safely. I had a great day there, though, taking in the nearby Graham of Carnan Cruithneachd. Not an easy one to say but a great, rough hill with spectacular views all round. It made the circuit to the falls even more interesting and made a good circu...

Lovely and touching post! What a fabulous wee spaniel she is, captured in such an amazing mountain setting. Your pictures brought tears to my eyes also as it took me back to a brilliant day I had on exactly the same route some years ago with my cocker, Struan. Oh what these hills and these dogs mean...

Good report from what seems like a fine walk in a beautiful, remote area - judging by the pictures. I checked for walks in the location after watching a really interesting documentary about the amazing Pocock family and their croft at Cougie. Glad to have found this and can't wait to get up there (p...

Hi, I had a similar experience last week on Blath Bhalg. Near on double the time it should have due to deep snow and "breakable crust". I agree, though, that these weeish hills are just the job for the superb but somewhat challenging difficult winter conditions we have had through March an...

Lovely report on the kind of hill I like to find myself on. Stunning conditions!

Lenore, it was once again a complete and utter pleasure to read one of your reports! It is wonderful that you have engaged with Scotland so well. I also rate Torridon as one of my favourite Highland areas and you have whetted my appetite for a return there sooner rather than later. Your enthusiasm, ...

Superbly entertaining report, Lenore! The pictures are pure quality too.Congratulations again from me on the start of your Munro adventure.

Lenore, your talent for finding great conditions on Scotland's mountains is only matched by your reports and your photos!! I am so pleased for you that you had a such a happy visit to Rhum. Pure entertainment!

Lovely to see your report, Lenore! I certainly agree with your comments, having climbed the hill, as you know, just a few days before your ascent. Some good pictures there - combination of your photographic skills and a photogenic area, I reckon.Hope the rest of your tour was as good.

Looked like stratus - low(ish) cloud - coming and going, more than anything dealing out rain or snow. Made for a frustrating time, no doubt, but this kind of cloud cover can form or dissipate in a flash and is devilishly difficult to forecast. Given it was the middle of January, it didn't appear too...

Hi, My best ever view of a White-tailed (Sea) Eagle at close quarters! This was on a beautiful Saturday, while walking south along the west coast of the Minginish peninsula, about 2km from Talisker Bay. It was a fully grown but juvenile bird, could not see the tag. However, the bird flew past me sev...
