A rubbish winter made the best of

This winter has been a bit pants: the snow didn't come in the UK until late and when it did it never seemed to want to hang around long. Thankfully Scotland and The Lakes got into condition a few times. I'm a member of The Northumbrian Mountaineering Club and made it on trips to Laggan, Aviemore, Glen Coe, Ballachullish and The CIC hut on The Ben. Clare and I also got out on a road trip through Glen Coe up to The Ben and on to Skye.

I'll be writing up some of these trip in a bit more detail in coming posts.

Here's a few pictures in the mean time:
