New book with a rather long title out now!

My latest book has just been published, a guide to the huge region of dramatic mountains between Glen Carron and Little Loch Broom in the NW Highlands of Scotland. All the big names are in of course, as shown in the title and subtitle, but the book also includes all the other hills in the area and some of the smaller ones are real gems. There's 50 routes in all. 

The book has over sixty of my photographs, mostly taken over the last two years. Indeed, getting the photographs was more difficult than researching the routes. The latter could still be done on dull or misty days. As book full of cloud-shrouded hidden hills would not be a good idea (there are some pictures like this - I didn't want to give the impression it's always sunny in this region!) I made many visits to take pictures in good conditions.

Of course there are many photos I took that don't appear in the book, like the one above. I submitted 150 of the 1400 or so I took. Here are a few more of those that didn't make it into the book.
