The 2012 LAMM: beautiful scenery, hard work, terrible midges, and my first ever Munro summit...
Thanks to the extra holiday the four day jubilee weekend made for a perfect opportunity to head a little further afield than a normal bank holiday weekend allows.
I headed off to Reiff, just North of Ullapool, at the weekend to go climbing with the Ladies Scottish Climbing Club.
I was lucky enough to have last Wednesday off work so I decided to head out and make the most of the sunshine. Who do you call when you need a mid week partner – a lazy PHD student is usually a good bet!
The Edinburgh marathon festival took place during this last hot weekend.
The weather forecast for Sunday was looking fantastic for a day out in the hills, so despite my slightly weak ankle it was just too much temptation to get out for a run.
My friends Amy and Will headed up to join me in Scotland this weekend with the intention of going winter climbing, with the rare combination of good conditions and a reasonable weather forecast we hoped to tick a **** classic route.
An eventful, if not entirely happy, day in the snow... How is it that there can be too much snow to travel, but not enough to ski?
Scotland lives up to its reputation as a suburb of the Arctic, but disappoints hydrologists everywhere...
