A wee Ochils tour:

Looking back down Mill Glen from The Law; heading up The Law; Cleuch summit trig; Ben Ever.

All aboard the Ben Cleuch Circular. Coffee, empire biscuits & big views all included in fare.

Grand day in the Ochils. Mill Glen ascent and the climb of The Law highlights as well as chatting to lovely folk happy that the sun was shining.

A hard-earned point at a difficult ground for Montrose, ahead of a vital game on Tuesday. Mad weather conditions today. Entertaining games v Alloa this season.

'Kick' turns 5 years old today. It has a few of our most beloved songs on it, and I'm proud of the work we did on that record. I put some handwritten lyrics up from that record in the store, thanks for listening.

This 👇 was the 2024 equivalent of a walk-in to a newspaper office with a story to tell... a real privilege to speak to Tom Millar, whose 1994 Tayside Munro Challenge was the OG of WaterAid mountain fundraisers in Scotland's water sector.

Mr Palin has done it again. Beautifully researched and written, gripped from page 1 to the last.

Hot Water Music are never not brilliant and A Wilhelm Scream Scream were incredible… a good night at the office ❤️👊🏻

Enjoyed this great Scotland Outdoors podcast on my early morning walk today. Good to hear from Mountaineering Scotland's new president and chair - both the first women in their roles, and great tips for those who want to start hillwalking. 🐾 Anne Butler 🐾

Work continues on An Teallach...
Last week, an enthusiastic team of Outdoor Access Trust for Scotland volunteers teamed up with path contractors from Cairngorm Wilderness Contracts to undertake path-building work on An Teallach as part of the It's Up to Us campaign🧵⬇️

Team Tinto 🤜🤛

This just landed through the letterbox in Bo'ness.

Seriously Richard Leonard - you or your councillors didn't stop Bo'ness reccy and pool getting shut. Cheers though.

On #WorldWaterDay we're highlighting the 2024 Munro Challenge to fund clean water, decent toilets & good hygiene projects in Rwanda. 2 yeard ago we raised £35,000 for projects in Malawi: Jackie & her team volunteered from a supporting organisation and helped make a difference ⬇️

Tremendous night in Glasgow last night watching the finest band on the planet. That set 🔥 😍

The Gaslight Anthem

Also, troops, always check out the support acts. Emily Wolfe opening for Gaslight tonight was stellar.
