Found a Thinsulate “Blizzard” glove just off the summit of Driesh yesterday. Get in touch if it is yours and I can get it back to you.

After a long break of about six months I finally managed to get back to the hills. The weather forecast was perfect across most of the country and I eventually plumped for these two given that it didn’t seem too long or taxing a day.

After finally getting back to the hills in the last weekend of February it seemed the weather would hold and Saturday was to be another fine day. It took me a long time to decide on where to go but eventually plumped for Beinn Bhuidhe. The weather was to be best in the West and from reading the walk...

With the forecast of excellent weather this weekend I was determined to get out and enjoy some hills. I think Saturday may have been a slightly better day with the wind but Sunday was to be good also. These 4 have been on my list for some time as they are some of the further South outstanding. An ea...

After a long, long break from the hills due to a snapped Achilles tendon I was getting itchy feet for some big hills. I had done a few walks in the Pentlands and lower level to try to build up some fitness again and felt that with the high starting point they were a good reintroduction to Munros. A ...

So after a long, long break thanks to Covid and life generally I finally had a week off and the chance to get back to the hills! Hoping for a straightforward hill to get back in the swing of things I settled on Beinn Chabhair given it was the closest Munro that I hadn't summited and from the reports...

A bit of a late call on Friday afternoon but with Dad being free and the days getting shorter we were keen to try and get out and, for me at least, get the last of the Arrochar Alps. We arrived at Inveruglas for 8 and got one of the last remaining spaces, I thought we were pretty sharp but clearly q...

I had been looking at these hills for a wee while, after completing most of the Arrochar Alps the next logical step seemed to be the Lawers group. We had had a fantastic day on Meall nan Tarmachan a couple of months ago and got some wonderful views over to Lawers itself so I was hopeful the weather ...

With great weather forecast for most of the country on Saturday the hardest part was trying to pick what hills to go for! We settled on these two of the Crianlarich hills, we had thought about Ben More but it sounded a bit of a steep slog. Arriving at the car park for 8 it was getting busy already a...

Hi gaffr, yes compass and GPS were taken along today!

Thanks for all the kind messages all, nice to know a lot of others have made similar mistakes!

After last week's debacle in Glencoe I was keen to get back on the horse and thought that Ben Vorlich would be hopefully straightforward enough. The weather forecast looked ok so I set off early and arrived at the car park for just before 8. IMG_8770.JPG Setting off along the road we came to the tur...

Well, what a day that was! Coming to the end of 2 weeks of annual leave I decided to try and book a night away and catch a few Munros before returning to work. After a bit of research and booking an Air BnB in Drumnadrochit I settled on Buchaille Etive Mor on the way up and the 2 at Loch Lochy on th...

I was spoiled by my better half for my birthday and taken away for the weekend to the forest lodges in Ardgartan. Great accommodation and with its location perfect for bagging some hills. We had planned on not walking until the Sunday given the weather forecast but after waking on Saturday morning i...

With good weather promised and hoping to get some good views we decided on heading up to the Tarmachan ridge. Hoping to get some more practice of scrambling/ridge walking before tackling some of the bigger climbs in the future! We were a bit later setting off than usual due to a work night out the n...
