My trips so far. What it was like, directions, and anything I learn along the way.
Ben Aigan, the local hill above the Spey near Craigellachie — up with Katrina and Chase the day after Mount Keen, one wrong turn, and Rothes and the Moray Firth laid out from the top.
Mount Keen, Scotland's most easterly Munro at 939 metres, from Invermark in Glen Esk — my first Munro since building the app, on a stunning October day.
Cook's Cairn, a Graham of 756 metres in the hills between Glenlivet and the Cabrach — the longest walk on here yet, at about 21 kilometres there and back.
The first month of the round — eight hills between the 8th of August and the 12th of September, what each one is like, which ones I'd send you up first, and the three that gave me nothing at the top.
Read One month, eight hills
Morven, a Corbett of 872 metres above Logie Coldstone, and the second hill of the day. A brutal climb with a fake summit at every bump, and the view goes everywhere once you're up.
Clachnaben in the mist — a Graham of 589 metres in Aberdeenshire, with a great granite tor at the top and ten minutes of hunting for the trig point once I got there.
The Buck in the mist — 721 metres, and marsh for roughly three quarters of the way up. Wear boots you don't mind ruining.
Mither Tap in the mist — 528 metres, 428 metres of climbing, and not a view at the top. This one was about the directions and the climb.
Three kids up their first hill — 563 metres above Rhynie, 298 metres of climbing, and a fair bit of grumbling on the gravel path.
A morning on the hill above Cullen — forest tracks, heather in full flower, and the whole Moray Firth laid out below.
The second hill of the same day — one short steep pull above Knock village, taken faster than was sensible.
The first hill of the round — 366 metres above Keith with Chase for company, and a summit with three or four other paths I didn't take.
