Whos this like?? I stay in Cruden Bay these days lol!!

Awesome!! Get to the chopper!!!

Martin here and I am happy to say that tomorrow I will be making my escape from sea jail via a hopefully reliable Sikorsky S76 back to Aberdeen. Now the question that has been burning my very soul the last few weeks.... Where is the snow? Im sure there is tons of it already in the hills so I just wa...

Where you staying now then?? When I first read that comment I thought you said learnt to drive there! Lol!! I've been up there to have a nosy in the past. I thought there might be decent climbing. There is not. Hi, well I'm now in the beautiful Highlands! :o) Surrounded by hills, well, they're real...

Bennachie rocks my world. Even better since its only 40 mins or so away. The only thing tha tops that is being able to walk from my front door to some of the best North East outcrops for climbing!!

You can be jealous now

Great report and an absolutely awesome achievement. I thought I started early at 11! Granted I was on my own back then so the learning curve was steep. You should adopt the 'Sherpa' technique in order to tire him out. If that fails there's always powerade...

Keep on bagging!

I use an msr whisperlite which is very reliable, boils water über fast and packs away inside the small pan I use with it. I bought a small metal water bottle to carry on lightweight trips instead of the standard size.

Congrats on the great walk report and more so on your first solo day!! It's the way to go in my opinion! Where will number 10 be then?

Awesome walk report and I must say I'm a little jealous about the overnighter. I opt for just a bivvy bag with a sleeping bag as my sleeping arrangements nowadays. Shame the weather has started getting cold now. My pal isn't ready for the winter yet so im waiting til next summer now

Cheers to both of you. It was a fair effort. I had done both sides of the road previously as separate walks so it was a first time for me too. Unfortunately the windy day had meant our clothes stayed on and there was no naked munro antics!!

Weather is getting to cold now for that lark!

A quick walk round Bennachie was the order of the day on monday. It was a last minute affair after a medical for work so the gear I had was what was left over from sunday. That consisted of my daysack, a litre of water and a banana. My walking boots were at home drying off so it was a pair of trail ...

So it was a sunday morning. Nae to early as I arrived at Steve's house. Bang on 9am in fact! I unpacked my car and stuck my gear iin the boot of Steve's car. It was a fine Aberdeen morning as we set off towards Dundee and the feeling was that it would be a nice day. We picked up Stu on our way throu...

So it took the 3 attempts to complete but its finally done!! We had planned to try and get round all the hills immediately surrounding Glenshee skie centre. The following munros were on the hit list for first timer Steve who I now do all my walking with: Cairn of Claise, Carn a'Gheoidh, Carn an Tuir...
