  1. Brown Cow Hill from Corgarff Castle in Aberdeenshire with Moray yesterday. Sounds an unimaginative name, until you remember that many of the Gaelic hill names – Black Hill, White Hill, Grey Hill, Red Hill, Big Hill, Small Hill – aren’t exactly inspiring.
    We did have some wildlife encounters – a mountain hare very visible still in its winter coat, and a few red grouse – which were great to see.

  6. Outdoorsy people - has anyone dealt with access issues in Perth & Kinross shire? There's no mention of the (statutory requirement) Access Officer on the council's website. Had to raise a generic complaint and hope it gets forwarded to the right person.

    But it's Perthshire, a lot of access issues. 🙄

    Locked gates, if anyone was wondering.

  11. Picked an easy day for the first new hill of 2025: Meall Tairneachan - the Corbett just across the road from Schiehallion in the Southern Highlands.
    The snow is all a memory - we're back to summer conditions. There was a cold wind at the summit, but we were sheltered on the way up and down by the forest and by the bulk of the hill itself.

  21. Navigating by compass in the mist across a featureless shoulder, peat groughs and patches of sheet ice meant a straight line was impossible.

    I've been playing this game for 40-something years, professionally since 2010, but when the mist thinned and my target ridge appeared dead ahead, it's still a wow! moment.

    Still got it haha. 🗻

  26. Auchnafree Hill from Glen Turret above Crieff with Moray on Thursday. Probably the last day of summer conditions for a while, serious wintery weather coming in over the next few days.

    Loch Turret.
    Moraines at the head of Glen Turret.
    Auchnafree Hill summit, the distinctive Ben Lawers group at the back.
    More heather moorland.

    Loch Garry;
    Two bridges near the head of Loch Garry;
    Sit Club;

  36. Good weather has come back for a while, but still a cold wind. Headed up Càrn Mòr, a Corbett above the Lecht ski centre. The ski infrastructure is always grim, so avoided it and found a landrover track heading up from about a km beyond the ski centre.
    Lots of boggy peat groughs, but easy walking higher up.

  41. The forecast was for the least bad day in between two storm systems. In the event it was a real Goldilocks day: not too hot, not too cold, not too calm, not too windy, not too sunny, not too cloudy. A bit of mist covering the summits, but it cleared while we were there.

    Meall na h-Aisre in the #Monadhliath from #GarvaBridge. There's a lot of water on the ground, it was very boggy until we'd gained some height.
