Stob an t-Sluichd
Stob an t-Sluichd

It's turning 8pm. An hour ago I took a shot - A Road Less Travelled - at the crest of the trail, before it descended into this wider section of the glen, but I couldn't tear myself away from the transient light tracing across the mountains, so most of the last hour was spent at that vantage point. Now the clouds are starting to burn with the last rays of sunlight. I thought it was around 6km to go at the last stop, but taking in to account the winding path, it's probably still a good 6km to the place I've never been to or seen before, but where I'll be calling base camp for the night: Faindouran Lodge. The River Avon runs alongside me, and Stob an t-Sluichd looks mighty, dominating the view as I continue deeper into the glen.

Ben Avon Case Closed
Ben Avon Case Closed

August 2nd 2009 I cycled from Tomintoul a 24 mile cycle round trip plus a 10 mile walk up Beinn a' Bhuird and then Ben Avon . On the way home feeling very pleased with myself I began to get strange sensations like electric shocks down one side of my body. This led to three years of illness culminating in serious neurosurgery last week which would appear to have resolved most of the problem possibly all of the problem. I get emotional, very emotional when I realise this in a very positive way . Reviewing my pictures I found this old shot of the mountain range which I cycled and walked that day and it brings back memories of the freedom that the hills gave me , the pain and frustration of the; last few years and the support I have had through this weird painful illness. It will be finally over when I return to work but yes I feel it is case closed:)
