I know it's the one which I passed on the stalkers' path around Ruadh Stac Mhor and thought it looked like a lion! ;-)<br />Carol.Carolhttp://www.mountaincowardadventures.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429013260986201371.post-62869687415746652962013-06-14T00:48:39.476+01:002013-06-14T00:48:39.476+01:00Hi Jim.

Third time I've lost them in a thirty year period after long days on the hill. Normally used to shed them after backpacking tours abroad. First time for Scotland.blueskyscotlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09373718369702364265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429013260986201371.post-56317649932326817332013-06-14T00:40:06.917+01:002013-06-14T00:40:06.917+01:00Hi Neil.

You really have to if you want to get them bagged if you only have weekends spare. 100 in my first year before I discovered rock climbing. When they were done however I decided to only go up hills in good weather from now on as a lot of them had been fairly lack lustre in thick mist and pouring rain. Could have been anywhere. Being out in driving rain, gales and blizzards seemed a novelty at first but after the first ten years I decided I preferred sunny days out.<br />I still feel that way :)blueskyscotlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09373718369702364265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429013260986201371.post-47101843885640058332013-06-12T20:33:05.091+01:002013-06-12T20:33:05.091+01:00Like I said Bob, you and Alex climb real hills.

There'd be no more than four of our walking group would be up for it, and I'd not be one of them.<br />Your pictures are fantastic, they really need to be viewed full screen to do them justice.<br />Nice video.The Glebe Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09609629219727888442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429013260986201371.post-48114514551810788822013-06-12T19:13:42.244+01:002013-06-12T19:13:42.244+01:00Really is remote that one.

Glad you got good weather for it, I've never understood those folk who go into this sort of area in bad conditions just because they want the tick on the list.Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01521811229603749067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429013260986201371.post-51947273160444880862013-06-12T12:09:47.688+01:002013-06-12T12:09:47.688+01:00What if you sail, hang glide or kayak in?

There's also one west of Ladhar Bheinn in Knoydart that would take a mighty expedition to reach.<br /><br />Also, they don't count if you cycle in. He will have to do this hill again ;)Robert Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07479924424503608056noreply@blogger.com
