Just Us and a Few Friends. Tuesday, 13 August 2013. Albert Sunter: Joss Naylor Lakeland Challenge – 11 August. In a year when winter went straight to summer many plans fell to pieces and not all will be reconstructed before winter returns. After an April attempt was cancelled because of too much snow and a June attempt wrecked by “strong to gale-force” winds finding another date this year was something of a challenge but Albert rose to it and had a team sorted for last Sunday.

Just Us and a Few Friends. Sunday, 31 May 2015. Monadh Mor via Tom Dubh - 27 May. This was always going to be speculative - it isn't possible in Glen Feshie to tell what the weather is going to be like on the plateau above - but it was worth a look at, even if we were forced to bail out along the way. Looking back to Sgor Gaoith. Pauline on the last snowfield before Tom Dubh. Looking back to Sgor Gaoith. Posted by Ian Charters. Craig Meagaidh, Stob Poite Coire Ardair and Carn Liath - 26th May.

Ice Cream with Red Sauce (or Monkey Blood as it was known locally). A proper hot summer day when we wandered along the prom, took some photos, had an ice cream and finished the day off with fish and chips on the way home. Just what hot summer days are for.
