splendid isolation: A game of two halves
http://www.weeblackdug.co.uk/2015/07/a-game-of-two-halves.html
Wednesday, 22 July 2015. A game of two halves. Last November saw me and Andy head for Victoria Bridge with a view to engaging with a portion of the Black Mount. As far as I know the term/description also encompasses Meall a' Bhuiridh and Creise, which had definitely been a 2014 hillwalking highlight. So it seemed worthwhile to familiarise ourselves with the other end of the collection. To return to the point of the post, what happened in November 2014 was that we decided at the summit of Stob a' Chore Od...

splendid isolation: Beinn Fhada, or Ben Attow
http://www.weeblackdug.co.uk/2015/07/beinn-fhada-or-ben-attow.html
Monday, 13 July 2015. Beinn Fhada, or Ben Attow. Or, that big hill right. At the furthest away end of Glen Shiel. As I said to Andy earlier today, if I hadn't had Molly in the car, I'd have been sorely tempted to turn around about 15 minutes before I arrived at the start point of the walk in Morvich, and head home. The last section of the drive was purgatory - even allowing for the fact that I was taking a sneaky Thursday off work, thanks to a half decent weather forecast. Gosh, it was slow. She was on t...

splendid isolation: A' Ghlas-bheinn
http://www.weeblackdug.co.uk/2015/07/a-ghlas-bheinn.html
Tuesday, 28 July 2015. Regrettably, when fine tuning the oeuvre for publication, I pressed the wrong * * ing button and lost it all, so youse are getting some photographs instead. This hill is adjacent to Beinn Fhada. I mentioned that one a few days back. For A' Ghlas-bheinn, the route lies straight ahead, and it's an impressive path that cuts across the hillside, proceeding into a steep sided gorge which eventually leads up to the Bealach na Sgairne. But you soon get there anyway. It's a bit more substa...

splendid isolation: Mount Battock
http://www.weeblackdug.co.uk/2015/08/mount-battock.html
Sunday, 9 August 2015. The weather was forecast to be uniformly depressing last weekend, but there was the promise of a rain free window (at least in the earlier part of the day) around the Angus glens. We've done Mount Keen recently - and frequently - so we settled on a rare Corbett foray and headed north east, with a view to wandering up Mount Battock. Those stone-built butts are formidable structures. I suspect that even if three or four really. Bonnie purple heather, with added yellow digger. It was ...
