Re: Spar Cave, near Elgol [Skye]

Looks like a great pirates treasure search. The grandkids would think they were pirates of the caribbean if I took them down there. Fantastic. Very true, Monty- I had remarked to Scott as we walked the cave what a perfect treasure hiding spot it would have made. Inside the cave was full of dark hol...

Re: HDR Images

Those are wonderful, Stretch! Admittedly, the technical stuff is lost on me, but I'm glad you've posted the pics. :) I really love the first one of the cannon... in fact I'm fairly certain that pic was taken just down the street from my house- Sharpsburg MD?? :shock: Those little hills in the backgr...

Re: Doing things properly = less fun?

after all, don't we escape into them to remove ourselves from rule and dictat?

Re: Doing things properly = less fun?

Great post David! Yes, be the crazy and foolish 'you' of a couple of years ago... well, perhaps a more educated version, anyway! I was giggling as I read the original and thinking- yes, YES!... in fact I reckon I started out even more foolish/naive/risky than you a couple of years ago. My style has ...

Would be a necessity on this side of the ocean- we've got water that's not at all safe to SWIM in, much less drink! :?

Re: Hello one and all

Hi there, and welcome to the site! I'll echo your sentiment on being totally in love with the highlands... I'm currently planning the next round of mountain adventures for May, can't wait :thumbup: despite taking the wrong (and dangerous) route up! Yep, done that a few times myself! :oops: But there...

It's been crucial in planning walks in Scotland from far afield- for someone initially unfamilar with many of the areas and just starting out in hillwalk...
