The Donald's

Hey Guys

I have just completed the Donald's today 😁

Excuse my ignorance but can anyone advise why Graham's appear on the Donald's List ?

Congratulations!

The definitions of Grahams and Donalds are not mutually exclusive, so some hills are in both lists. In fact all Grahams and Corbetts in the Lowlands are also Donalds.

Congrats. Have you done the additional tops too per the SMC list? There's more than 89 of them now. :crazy:

Grahams and Corbetts need a drop of at least 500 feet on all sides, so some appear down the Borders and Ochils.

Percy Donald's formula for the Donalds is quite complicated. :lol:
