Leaves only a couple of island ones then, both of which I've yet to do. Feels like I should wait for crf to trawl the memory banks?!

Or just start the elimination process :D

Hum! Still lost With the last correct answer😣

I've climbed it according to RC. Still no wiser although I have completed the Corbetts. Need to check a map.😂 Maybe I haven't walked it! Perish the thought.😄

:D Now realised what Corbett it is! Old age settting in! Many moons ago when I completed that. Also saw Sea Eagle, Golden Eagle and male Hen Harrier on the day. Those where the days.

Sneaky one - you were walking to Dun da Gaoithe but the hill in the photo is the neighbouring Graham, Sgurr Dearg!

Apologies for any confusion. I meant that people could see the corbetts I'd been up as they're blue on my map and there aren't many SW of Fort William whereas I haven't been up many Grahams so they're red on my map and wouldn't help as a clue.
