Tràigh Iar (try EEar) is a spectacular beach on the west coast of Harris in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland.

High in the spectacular Grey Corries, near Fort William, on a beautiful June morning. The early-morning mist slowly melted as we sat in the warm sunshine, savouring the views all around us.

Sunset on the top of Beinn Ime. A warm evening spent under the stars followed, with just a sleeping bag on top of a mat.

A lone walker approaches from the path below, having ascended the Cobbler (Ben Arthur) very early in the morning.

We emerged from the inversion in Glen Coe, having walked in the gloom for miles. As we neared the summit we broke into bright, warm sunshine despite it being in the middle of November. An unforgettable view.

Exploring a snow tunnel in June, high on the slopes of Ben Macdui, Scotland’s second highest hill. Despite the warmth of the day outside it was no warmer in the tunnel than a fridge. A welcome relief for the overheating hiker.

Skiing across a high plateau in the Cairngorms in February. The soft snow made walking almost impossible, but with skis we covered many miles with almost no effort. A bitterly cold day, but so worthwhile.
