More hills

A more sociable walk today, with an ascent of Ben Vane. The cloud kept us cool in the walk-in, then cleared on the way up to give a pretty good, if hazy view. Even Ben Nevis put in an appearance, with a tiny snow field glittering in the distance. I officially declare Ben Vane to be a cool hill. It's steep and has boulders and scrambly bits.

Interesting that none of us were repelled by the pylons and pipes of the Loch Sloy hydro scheme that's next to it. I mean look, it's a landscape-it has stuff in it.

Perhaps you could buy a digital camera and post the pictures here?

You could be the next Constable, Dave!

Yeah, I should. I keep forgetting to take it.

More paintings of substations in the mountains are very much needed!
