The West Highland Way
The latest club member to do the West Highland Way is none other than our very own Secretary, Hugh Simpson. In the company of wife Liz and pal Frank he walked from Milngavie to Fort William, finishing the 96 mile route the weekend before last. Despite a few difficulties along the way, the dreaded 'lochside' where Frank had a nasty fall, the Drovers Inn being double-booked (a blessing in disguise as it turned out) and going off-course (uphill!) while heading up Glen Falloch by all accounts they seem to have thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Hugh told me the first photo below (of their actual finish) is typical of the weather encountered along the route and, being Scotland during the summer, the other was taken the day after their epic journey had been completed.
Huge congratulations to them all for persevering and completing the entire West Highland Way.
