Me and Gammy

I have decided to finally write a report of this trip for 2 reasons,
1, Because it was mine and Gammy's 100th munro
2, I have finally got my own internet working after about 6 months of poor connection which prevented me using this site as much as I used to and I have now moved to a new home and my Internet is finally back to normal so hopefully I can contribute a bit more to the site again (except from lunchtime at work)

This walk was organised as part of a great weekend that was organised by Bod and Val at kintail and we did look at doing something in this area with some of the WH team but as this turned out to be both our 100th munro's we decided for something a little different.
This walk topped off a great weekend which included meeting loads more members from the site.
I was a bit gutted that my mate JB likes a beer couldnt make this trip but as me and Gammy done our 1st munro together it was great to do the ton together

Gammy has already written a fantastic report that merited an excellent day so I just want to share some of my pics of a great day on this amazing walk
Beinn Alligin certainly is a jewel and I would recommend this to anyone who loves the hills.

A special thanks to Graeme D who kept Gammy on his toes on this trip with his account of his trip over the horns by saying how exposed it was,The big man was up most of the night and never ate his lunch as he suffers from a little vertigo But he done a great job getting over this with the Gammy leg,knee,ankle etc giving him no problems today

Thanks for reading and to all who made this a special weekend

Thanks Paula It would be great if we could do this but I feel a competitive urge from the big man to get there first
