great site, info on every munro, and more. im a novice hillwalker only started last sept aged 41 with my wife and our bearded collie (wilson) our 1st munro was mount keen, since discovering this site at about the start of the year and reading up on some of the info available it has given us more confidance to keep up our new found hobby.
have now completed about 16 or 17 munros and gaining experience with each trip.
I also purchased QUO mapping software and the (os scotland 1:50k map) and can now download walking routes from the site, this really is a good feature.
Our next trip will be up tp the spittal of glen shee and the two munros to the north west. glas tulaichean angd carn an righ, will hopefully get our 1st report submited soon.

keep up the good work guys.

Hi Dave
Thanks for that and welcome! Glad to hear you are gaining confidence and experience... and the summer is only just about to begin (unless you look out the window today :shock: )

Happy walking

Welcome!

Very impressed with your strike rate to date - you're tickin' them off like a well oiled machine... By the time I co-ordinate the diaries of myself, wifie, two stroppy teens and the dog (who has a better social life than me) we're lucky to get out once a month at the moment.
