My husband cleaned our log burner and we read the manual together and realised why it wasn't working properly. It is now perfect and we have had a lovely day baskingin the heat of the log fire
I have started one of the books I was gifted. It is called Bothy written by Kat Hill. All good so far I am learning a lot
We had smoked haddock and poached egg for dinner. A nice change from meat

Perfomance Art!

The reviewer cheated though! I hope they are ashamed of themselves and regret not getting the full experience, up and anticpation and down with memories.

Original bothy (closed because of asbestos) is being demolished. New bothy planned to be built in Spring next year.

The welcome return of a base for accessing Ben Alder and other hills!

Tuut Tuut! Wir sind auf #Mull!
Eine Insel neben Schottland und fahren da ein paar Tage rauf und runter.

#Keule wurde zur Fledermaus in unserer ersten Nacht in einem #Bothy.

Wir sichten Tiere welche wenig spass machen zum passieren. Z.B. #Midges oder #Stiere...
Dafür hats bei letzterem meistens noch süsse Hochlandrinder dabei. (Haben vergessen ein Foto zu machen, aus Angst vor dem Stier)

I walked the Cape Wrath Trail in Scotland over 17 days (433 km).

Day seven: the rain joined me, and it will continue for the next five days. I rather like it, the colors of autumn become so much more intense.

Furthermore, a bothy is visible in this photo. It's a wonderful service of the Mountain Bothies Association of Scotland. I used them twice during the 17 days and was always very happy for the shelter.

A remote white building stands out against the muted browns and greys of the Scottish Highlands. Rain falls softly, blurring the outlines of the distant mountains. The lake in the valley reflects the somber hues of the sky. Despite the dreary weather, the landscape exudes a sense of quiet beauty.  The vastness of the scenery evokes a feeling of solitude and peace.

I’ve been reading a lot of #books this spring, and offer these recommendations:

Darkness at Noon by Arthur Koestler - An older book that encapsulates the internecine yet intellectual madness of loyalists within the #Stalinist purges.

Prophet Song by Paul Lynch - a powerfully #dystopian tale of Ireland incrementally slipping into a fascist dictatorship.

#Bothy by Kat Hill - an evocative tale of the history & usage of bothies intermixed with a personal journey of loss, grief and growth. [05/24]

Haus am See. - House by the lake. #Schottland #Scotland #LochLomond #Doune #bothy
Auf einem Hügel an einem See stehen zwei Häuser, eins davon ist verfallen, das andere kleinere weiße hat ein rotes Dach. Ein nasser Weg führt auf die Häuser zu, die Berge im Hintergrund liegen fast im Regennebel. 

There are two houses on a hill by a lake, one of which is dilapidated, the other smaller white one has a red roof. A wet path leads up to the houses, the mountains in the background are almost covered in rain mist.

Kearvaig Bothy. Cape Wrath.

A small bay on the north east coast of Cape Wrath. A disquieting place that should be idyllic but isn’t. I find it quite triggering.

A lone building sits nestled against the hills. The image is in black and white with the slightest of sepia tinges. The mood is of isolation and desolation

@aroundthehills I'm just starting in this way.
Our first trip was cycling with my 7yo to a premier inn in London carrying our clothes.

Then to the YHA hostel at #CwmIdwal with more in our bags.

And the other day we went #Champing in #Wroxeter which is when we packed the most to date! Next stop, the #bothy near #Bala!

#WalkReport Amazing 17km #LakeDistrict walk with #GreatGable, Dub’s Hut #bothy and #HonisterSlateMine being highlights.

Brutal descent coming down from #GreatGable, we spent most of it on all fours looking like crabs🦀

Can you get here by public transport? You certainly can. Just take either the 77 or 78 bus from #Keswick. Currently only £2 per single ticket! 🚌

Memories of Inshriach Bothy from 2014 - a sudden longing for a hut in the woods.

#scotland #TinyHouse #bothy

a small modern bothy in a wood - tin roof, a bench outside, a sense of stillnessthe interior of the both - a wood stove, a modern leather chair, a writer's desk, the clutter of travel: books, walking boots, a hot water bottle

Scanning old slides, March 1981. Sleeper to , 2 day trek with overnight at , to , then sleeper home. I remember it was the weekend the clocks went forward, as I missed my intended train home because of that.
A lot of water about, I remember a couple of interesting river crossings.
I've got a long term plan to recreate this walk at some point.

Looking along a long straight valley, flat with steep sides. A line of telegraph poles receding into the distance. Dull and cloudy.A full waterfall under a wooden foot bridge.A river meandering and braiding over a wide valley which rises slightly to low hills. A ruined stone building on the far bank.A stone building on a slightly sloping hillside, steeper hills to the side. The grassy patch immediately outside the building has some sleeping bags spread out in the sunshine.
