I've managed 25 munros this summer. Which is 4 more than I targeted . My season is almost over as I'm not much into winter walking :?

Would like to get half way in 2017 ie another 38 blue balloons! Might have to sacrifice some Saturday golf :lol:

Thank you Ally :D Glad you managed 25 Munros during this summer :clap: but don't give up your walking season yet, you can still find some nice days for the mountains ( and keep more saturdays for your golf then by the way ) :wink:
I love the mountains in Winter, clear snow & ice...frost rather than summer's boggs, clear fresh air, no midges, no sweat, less chance to get dehydrated....snowing rather than rain...pathless shortcuts in the snow...saving my joints and knees when descending in snow...the beautiful combination of white snow, blue sky and grey rock... 8) despite all the harder walks in deep snow :D
Looking forward to see your half way in 2017...all the Best !
