Latest Reports From Club Events (see calendar for future events)
Photo: Irene Cahill	The Whangie ( 13 April 2008) The Whangie is a strange rock formation cut into the side of a rolling hill. Last time we were here we watched the rock climbers but there were none out today. After lunch we headed up to the trig point at Auchineden Hill ......... (report and photos)
Photo: Mark Kinnon	Durisdeer Hills ( 5 April 2008) There was a biting cold wind but with good visibility we could see over the Solway Firth to Cumbria. As we gained height we could see the outline of the Roman Fortlet in the valley….well everyone but Jacqui could see it as she hadn’t a clue what she was meant to be looking at .........

Photo: Keith Salmon	Keith bags 100 Munros! ( 31 March 2008) Nita spotting an eagle as we descended from Gael-charn and later as we sat having lunch we were watched by two very casual mountain hares that were sat on a rock not far away. A perfect way to climb my 100th Munro ......... (report and photos)
Photo: Ginge Scarff	Kinlochleven Weekend ( 8 February 2008) We managed to get about halfway when we were confronted by a very deep, quite wide, fast flowing river. The guys all managed to get across and quickly got their cameras out to capture the view if one of us wee short legged girls fell in ......... (report and photos)
Photo: Keith Salmon	Beinn Ime ( 12 February 2008) We had planned a ridiculously early start and a trip up to the Drumochter Hills, but by the time we’d got back from the Monday club night at 11pm, the enterprise didn’t seem quite so appealing! So then, a more local hill and a slightly longer sleep ......... (report and photos)
