The term "Munro" refers to a Scottish mountain over 3000 feet, or about 914 metres, in height. These hills
were first listed by Sir Hugh Munro (hence the name) some 100 years ago. It is my hope to one day climb all of them.

Why not? The scenery is beautiful (when it is not obscured by the mist and driving rain which always disappears about half an hour after leaving the summit), for a start. If you want a taste, here are some photos to convince of the enjoyment involved. If they don't convince you, then so what? The real thing is 1,000,000 better. If they do, so much the better!
I am compiling detailed descriptions of the hills I have climbed, in case anybody out there is interested in them. Click here to take a look at them.
When I say "detailed" I mean detailed; so many of the so-called guidebooks are really not detailed enough. Sure, they get you (eventually) where you want, but most I've seem tend to be dismissive of any difficulties, and also, a great shame I think, tend to describe certain hills as "insignificant" or boring.
