Last weekend - a near perfect early winter day on

Last weekend - a near perfect early winter day on Saturday for my 6th visit to the local Munro this year, this time for Anne-Marie’s last Munro. Quite the way to finish a round & great that @r.kermode joined us too! The views, particularly of An Teallach & Creag an Duine, were phenomenal. After dodging all the deer on the A835 to travel down the road, Sunday was also to be a sunny day. Or so I believed 🤣 An atmospheric & damp day was had with my Dad on Gulvain. Still a fun hill day despite the anti-climax weatherwise, it was nice to be back on that hill for the first time in a while, & good to get my Dad down to 37 to do! #SeanaBhraigh #Gulvain #Munros #LastMunro #ScottishMountains #WesterRoss #Lochaber #getoutside #thegreatoutdoors #exploremore #WalkHighlands

Another glorious day in the far north today revisiting some very familiar ground on Ben Klibreck then a bit of exploring on the wilder side of the hill, with an obligatory stop in at the Crask on the way back. Lots of ptarmigan around again. #BenKlibreck #Sutherland #FarNorth #Munros #ScottishMountains #CraskInn #getoutside #thegreatoutdoors #exploremore #ptarmigan #WalkHighlands

It’s always good to visit Glen Strathfarrar, today leading the four Munros with Emma in some fine late Autumn/early winter conditions. The winter access worked very smoothly even if it is a very questionable setup. #GlenStrathfarrar #Munros #ScottishMountains #fogbow #Autumn #mountainlife #getoutside #thegreatoutdoors #exploremore #ScottishHighlands #WalkHighlands

Another nice day leading on the local Munro yesterday with Catherine, Jude, Fiona & Jacqui. We headed to Seana Bhraigh from Inverlael & were treated to all of the views as we walked out to this remote summit in mostly sunshine & light winds. It wasn’t too cold either. Quite a change from recent times! The autumn colours were at their best too. Many thanks to Catherine for the jelly babies to power the day & Fiona for the tea & cake at the finish! @catherinestuart283 @judeaustin61 @livinglifescotland @kinlochlaichgarden #SeanaBhraigh #Munros #WesterRoss #Inverlael #UllapoolHills #ScottishMountains #getoutside #thegreatoutdoors #exploremore #ScottishHighlands #WalkHighlands

Leading with Jen on the Beinn Dearg 4 in absolutely perfect conditions. Saw ptarmigan, a very curious stoat, deer, had a headtorch finish & caught quite a display of the Northern Lights in Assynt on the drive home. Unbelievable as a work day! #BeinnDearg #Munros #WesterRossBiosphere #Autumn #ScottishMountains #westisbest #getoutside #thegreatoutdoors #exploremore #mountainlife #WalkHighlands

Good to join my old pal Ben for some walks on his local trails. Also more crazy scenery & a display of the aurora that was on a different level from what we get in Scotland. #Lofoten #LofotenIslands #Leknes #Norway #ArcticNorway #Ballstad #dogwalkswithaview #getoutside #thegreatoutdoors #exploremore #NorthernLights

Kartstaven looking & very much feeling the part of a hill in the Arctic Circle earlier. A brutal windchill up there but a fine hillwalk with copious numbers of ptarmigan & my micro crampons are turning out to be a worthwhile investment! #Kartstaven #Lofoten #LofotenIslands #Vestvågøy #HikingLofoten #getoutside #thegreatoutdoors #exploremore #Mountains #Winter #ArcticNorway

An unexpected opportunity to get up a hill straight off the plane. Phenomenal conditions in Lofoten, so nice to get some dry weather after the last few days at home! Also, nice to be reunited with my old pal, Ben. #LofotenIslands #HikingLofoten #Holandsmælen #Norway #Mountains #getoutside #thegreatoutdoors #exploremore #Vestvågøy #ArcticCircle #dogsofinstagram
