A list of puns related to "Fort William, India"
Hey folks, Iβm heading down to Glencoe/ Fort William area and Iβm looking for some trail running suggestions! Iβd like to find some technical terrain, the distance or elevation donβt matter! Any suggestions?
Hi all! This is my first time doing a trip report, so would welcome feedback and thoughts. I am conscious that I definitely did this in βlong-formβ style, but I wanted it to serve multiple purposes and this trip meant a lot to me so I hesitated from cutting it down at this stage.
One quick plug up front: I am an American expat (early 30s) living near London, England. Not sure how many folks here are based in the UK, but if you are interested in collaborating on a trip some time, shoot me a DM. Itβd be great to find some hiking partners that may have similar aspirations. OK, happy reading!
Where: Scottish 4000ers Traverse; this is an unofficial route that hits the 9 peaks in Scotland >4000ft, starting near Aviemore in the Cairngorms and finishing in Fort William.
When: 2021/09/04 to 2021/09/11
Distance: 103mi
Elevation Gain: 22.8K feet
Conditions: Temperatures ranged during the week from the low 50s to mid/upper 60s during the day, with one standout 'nice' day on Wednesday that was sunny with temps reaching mid 70s; temperatures did not go much below 50 at night. Precipitation trended drier in the first half of the week, with wet days on Thursday and Friday. Overall, beyond the Wednesday sun, mist and fog clung to the peaks. Unfortunately, I did not get any views from the summits with every view blocked by mist (some visibility from Cairn Gorm).

The Report:
I planned to arrive in Aviemore by train on Saturday evening, after leaving my car in Berwick-upon-Tweed that afternoon. Iβd driven up from Kent starting Friday night, and Berwick would be my singular point of return for my car after I'd finished the thru hike.
