First Graham/Fiona of the new year. Hadn't been on a hill since November and was feeling the effect of recent festive over indulgence but the weather forecast was too good to miss. Followed the SMC Grahams' route but with a detour on the way up to Lochan Coire Thoraidh. Beinn Donachain 7jan2024.gpx ...

Like WM above, another vote for the Osprey Exos 58 from me - think it weighs about 1kg empty.
Similar to KR above, I also have and like an Osprey Kestrel 38l but I use it for winter day walks as I've never managed to get all my camping stuff into it (maybe I carry too much

).

Malky's report of a similar route from Kinloch Rannoch for the two munros may help

Magic - and a happy Christmas to both of you - cheers

Correct

Over to you - cheers

Cheers Caberfeidh

What is the name of this loch ?

Nice tally for your holiday, bracken notwithstanding

Not many to go now, wondered if you have any plans for the final 12 ? - cheers

Enjoyed that - your photos show off the late autumnal colours to best effect

Back in 2020 we'd planned a trip to the islands for what would have been my wife's first visit but events overtook us - still to manage it but hopefully in the next year or two - cheers

That's a lot of water - you did well managing a couple of hills given the conditions last weekend - cheers

Well done on making a positive out of a negative and managing to get and about again :clap: Sounds like you had a rather challenging time of late and it's so easy to let things get on top of you but you've made the break and a nice way in which to do it. Know what you mean about raynauds - same here...

Great idea - some lovely light in your photos - cheers

Stunning :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: especially the alpenglow photos in the morning :clap: Lost count of the number of times I've cycled out here and sat on the beach - but always between April - August. Looks fantastic in the snow. Glad to see Jaxter 2 back and yoru fitness looks great to me ! - ...

Loch Garry ?

A highlight right enough - that looked a great day - cheers

Tough as auld boots esp for the water crossing. That sounded challenging, hard going and mentally sapping but at the same time massively rewarding - well done

I still have long term plans for this for when I retire but it'll be May/June for me - cheers
