Tyndrum, with Beinn Odhar. 11am, 30/04/79 ~ When it was a one-horse town. It now has at least a horse and a donkey.
An early bivvy on Stob Daimh of Cruachan. 8pm, 02/06/79 ~ Those orange plastic bivvy sacks had the virtue of cheapness, but little else to commend them.
Stob Dearg from Glen Etive, a bit below Coupall Bridge. 3pm, 01/03/80 ~ Early days, in a Vango Force 10, and as if that wasn't heavy enough I often lugged about (on public transport) not one but two medium-format cameras, with several pounds of glass, in that huge rigid case. I soon learned.
