I like Scottish mountains enough to write about them sometimes. To make this easier I maintain a short list of useful sources, organised as handy quotations.

I work as a kitchen porter in Inverness-shire. My main interest is in researching the North-east face of Ben Nevis from the perspective of a good scramber and improving climber. My main climbing ethic (=aesthetic) is to use protection (ie ropes) to rehearse routes before climbing them free-solo. For this reason I don't generally climb routes above Very Difficult. I even had a damn close shave on a Difficult route last year (LH Chimney on Douglas Boulder NW face) when, already committed and with no rope, I was forced (?) to make an unsafe and exposed move up in a greasy crack. Dicey. Maybe I was off-line, but I wonder about that grade..
