Ben Hope
The one in a land far far away!! Ben Hope with its hat on Introduction - Ben Hope Ben Hope is the farthest north munro, it is also the one farthest away from my home in Stirling at a whopping 235 miles! Given the last 60 of those are on very windy single track roads, this was a mammoth drive of over 6 hours. Luckily, not many people visit here in the autumn and the roads were very quiet. I'm sure the same cannot be said of the summer. We were staying in Bettyhill, a wee vill

Am Faochagach - the boggy one!
Back to Loch Glascarnoch to tackle the boggy one! The broad ridge of Am Faochagach from the damn on Loch Glascarnoch Introduction - Am Faochagach - "the heathery place" Aye, the boggy one! You're not joking!! The munro book suggests that this munro is climbed after a very long dry spell or after weeks of hard frost to avoid an extensive bog trot. I can confirm that after one of the driest summers for a long time, it's still a bog trot. I can't imagine crossing the moor when i

Autumnal outing on A' Ghlas-bheinn
Quick ninja attack in Gleann Choinneachain....A' Ghlas-bheinn Beinn Fhada from A' Ghlas-bheinn Introduction - A' Ghlas-bheinn A' Ghlas-bheinn can be climbed with Beinn Fhada, in fact, the munro book lists these mountains together. However; having climbed Beinn Fhada on a beautiful snowy winters day, that was enough, leaving A' Ghlas-bheinn alone and vulnerable to a quick ninja attack on another day. Having said that, this whipper-snapper of a munro should not be underestimate
