Thanks Jim & Michelle for putting on a fantastic meet :clap: The hostel was perfect and judging by the amount of different expeditions that folk went on there was no shortage of mountains to climb in the surrounding area so a very successful weekend. Can't wait for the next one now!

Here's a wee snap of Gregor, Parminder, Sue, Jonathan and Martin about to tackle Gairich on Saturday...

Another cheers to Michelle and Jim for organising it and to the WH gang in general for making a newcomer feel welcome :clap: Gutted to have to leave early but was very chuffed to finally meet some legends (despite their protestations and strange 'who? me?!' looks) and will defo be back.

Despite some cracking blue skies and snow capped summits, this was my photo of the weekend:

Going by the photos a good time was had by all. I'm gutted I managed to injure myself the day I was going to travel up.

Fantastic meet once again, many thanks to the organizers for a great time we all had! :D Even overnighting in the tent was pleasant, despite the rain outside and Kevin snoring in his sleeping bag :lol: :lol:

I'm still sorting my photies from the weekend, here is one of Ben Tee group before setting off - minus Kevin who was taking the picture:
