 Bidean nan Bian seen from the north | March 13th - 18th A springtime holiday in March with friends to Glen Coe. With a late snow storm, we found the Glen Coe summits plastered in deep snow, making for a grand finale to what was a winter with one or two extreme spells of snow and cold weather. |
 An Teallach seen from the east | December 27th - January 2nd 2011 Another New Year trip with ex hiking club friends. This time to Ullapool. This was a trip with mixed weather, just as the 2nd big thaw of December was starting to kick in. Within 2 days, the landscape was transformed from "proper winter" to "typical winter". |
 Looking west along the plateau of Beinn Fhada | November 9th 2010 Late on in the Autumn, some time off work afforded me three days off to enjoy a long weekend around Glen Shiel. Beinn Fhada & A'Ghlas Bheinn were climbed on one day, and Sgurr an Airgid on the second day, just before storms arrived. |
 Sgurr a' Bhealaich Dheirg on the north glen shiel ridge | May 8th 2010 On a fine spring weekend, I made a camping trip along the North Glen Shiel Ridge, climbing both the brothers and sisters of Glen Shiel |
 Sgurr a' Choire Ghlais in the Strathfarrar mountains | April 7th 2010 A day out in the Cairngorms. With thick snow, and rising spring temperatures, It was the perfect day to enjoy the remains of Scotland's best winter for some time on the Cairngorm plateau. |
 Sgurr a' Choire Ghlais in the Strathfarrar mountains | March 28th - April 2nd 2010 A week long easter trip with ex Manchester hiking club friends was made in the Cannich area. It was a mixed bag as far as the weather was concerned, but two fine days yielded to us on the ridges of Glen Affric and Glen Strathfarrar. |
 Sgurr a' Mhuilinn, as climbed from Strath Conon | March 7th 2010 After a short trip to China, I had missed the heaviest of the snow, however I got out to climb some Strath Conon summits in the NW Highlands for the day. |
 Looking west into Strath Bran with Fhionn Bheinn very prominent | February 21st 2010 With a fantastic weekend turning up by suprise, I decided to make a quick day trip west of Inverness to climb Little Wyvis. |
 Looking into the Monadhliath Wilderness | January 2nd 2010 During a week of the snowiest Hogmanay trip for many years, short walks were the order of the day. Based in Newtonmore, we made very short walks to numerous subsidiary summits around Glen Banchor. |
 The norhern Helvellyn Range looking towards Blencathra | November 20th 2009 A weekend out with friends in Glenridding, one week after the devastating floods, revealed a very special day. With a trip to the summit of Helvellyn, we were treated to a day of cloud inversions and superb visibility. |
 Coire Adhair seen from the east | October 7th 2009 With my continuing week off, I decided to continue climbing hills further afield from home. This time a day trip to Creag Meagaidh fitted the bill nicely. |
 Ballater seen from the south | August - October 2009 Some additional photos have now been added to the Braemar pages |
 Northern Pinnacles of Mullach an Rathain | 11th July 2009 This was my final mmunro to climb on the mainland. Another fine day was forecast and so I headed back out to climb the western summit of Liathach. Now lay seven munros left on Skye to do before I can declare my 2nd round of the munros finished. |
