[Last Munro, partially climbed June 2023]
On the last day of May, 2023, I drove down to meet a group of friends in the Cairngorms. (You might think the Cairngorms are in the far north of Scotland. But the trip down south from Keiss was over 200 miles and took over 4 hours!)
This was a planned expedition with a group of around 20 of us, to support one of my old university friends, Orion, as he completed his last Munro.
For those who don’t know, the Munros are Scottish mountain peaks over 3,000 feet in height. The list was originally compiled by Sir Hugh Munro in 1891, but has since been refined. At present, there are 282 Munros, and my friend had completed 281 of them. Quite an achievement.
It was the beginning of June. A day of intermittent sunshine. Perfect walking weather.
