I’ve taken several little videos of hills and mountains from my train trip so far but I figure most people don’t really want to see a view of, say, Tinto capped with a dod of mist, because it’s just another rounded hill in the Scottish Southern Uplands (albeit the highest in South Lanarkshire). But I like it, and judging by the size of the Bronze Age cairn at the top, it meant something to our ancestors too.
