Think winter is over now

Great report and with a map like that you could join our MRT if you fancy it? It is in our area and you have done well to get it clag free.I have never seen a view from it and last time i was up it was 2,00am! Welcome back and look forward to some more of your great reports now you are back from you...

it really is a beautiful glen and your pic do it justice and i am glad i have never walked up the road because we always get permission to drive it!

Good report Gavin and a change of plan? I have dog trained up the track at Brig o Turk but not done any hills around there to the top.I ended up at the cobbler via narnain whilst Jo did Coriegrogan.What a great day and is winter over?

Morag that is awful and what does this behaviour teach kids who are watching it! I generally feel once you get above the tree line you can leave the idiots behind.Usually people who swear at me on the hill are wrapped up in a stretcher but that is a good sign

I took a couple of people up the cobbler last winter and there is a couple of boulders at the top where you can watch people going through the needle.My party had sat on the boulder for lunch and when they stood up a guy walked over and stamped his crampons on the boulder and caught one of the rucks...

www.footcaresupplies.com is where i got mine and pretty cheap.Have def made a difference and did 2 corbetts yesterday and a long track walk out and feet ok today,

Good to check out the navigation skills on a good day so you are more confident on a poor one.

I have worn manta for several years and also tended to get sore feet and even worse if doing a long walk in/out on tracks.I recently bought a couple of gel filled heel inserts and touch wood my feet have been a lot better.They are a narrow fit so a full insole may make less sense.Despite this always...

i just use the compass to measure on maps

That was some walk and that ridge is a tricky one in poor vis.Good move getting the lift back

Some of the Killin MRT are walking to the memorial today i think including team members who were on the hill that day.A sad day for Scottish MRT and we remember the others who have been killed or injured over the years in helping others on the hill.

Couple of teams out today along with search dogs

In some ways it feels good to be a bit retro at times and i remember the first proper waterproofs and the old framed rucksacks.You sometimes see some of the older guys on the hill with kit they must have had for years and will never change it.My old walking buddy used to to walk with a guy in his 70...
