Scotland the Brave

Well this old, fat bastard doesn’t evoke Scotland the Brave in my humble opinion. But he’s going trekking there in two days time, 140 miles from Fort William to Aviemore and down, through the Cairngorm mountains, to Pitlochry. Some remote country with more than my share of wild camping. And just to add a bit of spice to it the BBC is forecasting snow in Aviemore. But only light snow.

Keep an eye on this blog. I’ll start it on Thursday if all goes well but there will be several days between posts as there is no signal, no roads and no buildings (apart from the odd bothy) for many miles on one or two legs.

Night, night.

    I’m loving following your trip Dave. You have a way with words that should secure a book deal. The scenery is amazing and I’m sure the photos aren’t a patch on ‘the live view’. We had snow last night so I hope you didn’t freeze last night in your tent.
