Appearing in Aboyne, Hilltrek Event



Appearing in Aboyne, Hilltrek Event

This Saturday, October 27th, I’ll be at Hilltrek in Aboyne on Deeside to talk about gear, hillwalking, backpacking and anything else anyone is interested in. I’ll also be signing copies of my books. Hilltrek is a specialist outdoor clothing company who make their own products from Ventile, Nikwax Analogy, Pertex and other fabrics as well as selling products from companies such as Paramo (which I'm wearing in the photo)and GoLite (whose Odyssey pack I'm carrying in the photo). If you’re in the area do pop in for a chat. I should be there from 11am until 3pm.

The photo was taken at Smokejumper Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park last February on a cold, misty day. Ed Huesers took the picture with my camera as I sheltered under a beautifully frosted tree. Photo info: Canon EOS 350D, 18-55mm lens@28mm, f8@1/200, ISO 200, raw file converted to JPEG and processed in DxO Optics Pro.

  1. A good excuse for a drive out to the countryside. Maybe carry on and go for a bimble - start clearing the cobwebs and prove the physio right.

  3. I'll be carrying my collection of TGO's for you to sign each article ;-)

    Or just the Backpackers Handbook - which, amongst my small selection of books what you have writ, is the one most referred too.

    And if nothing else, for the recommendation of the Hilleberg Akto, thereby opening up a whole new world to me.
