our_route.gpx A slightly later start to the day saw us arriving at Balsporran cottages in murky conditions and the tops of the mountains swathed in mist. We set off at a good pace and were soon climbing the well constructed path towards Geal charn. This later turns into more of a muddy track, but n...

our_route.gpx After travelling up the evening before and camping in Blair Athol Neil and I had a relatively early start planned for our annual summer trip, and being as it was midsummer day we expected to be donning liberal amounts of sun lotion 8) We followed the WH route from the parking area at ...

Last minute decision to head for the hills and settled on a route from Aber that I have done on a number of occasions as it's probably the closest of Snowdonia's mountains to home. Weather forecast had been poor, but arrived in sunshine and set off from the car park at the start of the walk to the f...

Not a bad wee trip then? Hehe Thanks - just need a holiday to recover now :D What a FANTASTIC report and som...

Wow, that was some week you had there :D Super weather for Skye, that's for sure :D Have to say your photos make it look stunning (which it is of course :lol: ). Can't wait to open my account there, but at the same time I'm a little bit apprehensive too. Shame Glen Coe didn't deliver the same sunsh...

We could see across to the remainder of our route immediately to our north – it looked as though there was a tricky drop between us, but it opened us as we headed towards Sgurr Thearlaich and transpired to be a simple scramble down to the bealach. To ascent Thearlaich meant firstly heading 20 metres...
