I'm planning to walk (a part) of the cape wrath trail in May. I'm trying to plan how much food I need to bring and if I need to send it ahead. I was wondering if someone has information about places to restock. I have the book of the trail, but it is from 2019. So I'm not sure if that information i...

Our final weekend before the HebWay walk and I thought we should do something fairly innocuous. I'd have liked to stay close to home, but the weather was rubbish in the West and the only nearby hills needing done urgently were vicious thugs in the Trossachs, which wouldn't have been great for Alliso...

a couple of preoccupations at the moment - getting into shape before our HebWay walk, which is only 2 weeks away now, and ticking off remaining summits in my list. Weather didn't seem to be up to much good this weekend - I decided to head to Ardgour and get the four summits I needed there, plus the ...

Was up Carn a' Choin Deirg (cracking summit btw) on Sunday myself and was keeping an eye out for you. Sadly I've read enough of your trip reports over the years to know that a 14 plate Skoda Yeti in a car park means you're nearby somewhere! :lol: Always somewhere, yes 😂😂 What route did you take up ...

Easter long weekend! A chance for 4 days away which meant we could get further afield. Still with an eye on the rapidly upcoming HebWay walk, we knew it would be a good idea to get some distance in with big packs. I decided to revive the walk I'd abandoned due to weather the weekend before: a circui...

A great bothy/trip report as usual, Mal, and spectacular weather for such a pretty part of the world. That ridge is my favourite way up Canisp. Haven't stayed in Suileag, which is perhaps one of the busier bothies, although we did camp nearby which was about as good

And once you're far north, consider also climbing some non-munros. There are absolutely stunning mountains (e.g. Suilven, Ben Sparkle, Foinaven....) A traverse of Foinaven would be a great way of coming towards the close of the route. Having said that, I did think about doing it for about 2 seconds...

Ah we had more exciting plans for this weekend - had hoped to have a wander around the Alladale Grahams & Corbetts but the weather just wasn't playing ball - snow and high winds don't make for high camps and long exposed routes. So I turned my eyes nearer home - there was a wee cluster of Graham...

Oh nice pics!!
We've spotted more white-tails this year than ever before, never get any pics that are useable though

As an alternative, you could do Thuilm first then come off Sgurr nan Coireachan's nw shoulder (there's a path) and head east along glen pean, use the bothy or camp along that glen and rejoin the track for a'chuill As for the Sgurr na Ciche 3, have done them with a big pack, it's ok. I'd suggest you ...

I thought it looked suspiciously like a medical urine sample. Talking of which, has no-one found my water bottle which I lost near Corrie an Sneachda some years back? Green and white with a label reading "Medical Urine Sample" to deter theives... :shock: Surprisingly close :lol: Actually ...

I bought a 600ml silicone bottle for attaching to my rucksack - having got a bit sick of bladders leaking/not knowing when they're empty. I also quite like to pop an electrolyte tablet in on longer days. Anyway, these were cheap and do the business - robust silicone which I think will last longer t...

It's getting to that point where I am now looking to see what summits I've got left and what the most efficient way of doing them would be. Can get a bit tiresome, but - in pursuit of the greater goal, needs done. I knew there were 4 hills up near Cannich which would suit a not-very-exertive weekend...

With our aim of putting in some track miles in preparation for our HebWay walk next month, I thought it might be a good idea to head to Perthshire. The forecast was, when I saw it on Wednesday, for dry and settled weather. It's been so warm recently that the idea of snow and coldness was far from my...

If so what would be your preferred route ?

Does anyone know if anyone runs a boat ?

Thanks in advance

Yes. I prefer the way in by Strathan. Glen Pean is very pretty.
