Thank you, good to hear you like it. I tremendously enjoyed the walk, that's for sure.

There's a misunderstanding, I do not see myself as 'hard' or fit at all. I think persistence or patience describe me better, as in "if I keep quietly moving forward, that summit will be mine eventually".

We have a lot in common, weaselmaster. Except the beard of course
I liked your '(lack of) adventure on An Stuc': to want a hill, but still be sane.

The in- and outbound journeys took planning, and I double check shops. For the compilation of the daily route I count on experience, which falls short sometimes, and flexibility on the spot. Giving up on a hill is hard, since it might take many years before I return to a hill.

Several friends saw the souther and eastern snow-calamities on TV and texted me about it. I was ignorant but surely lucky this time round.
