Ho Hum! Another boring day having a bimble round the Scottish skies. Oh,
there was a bit of wave about, so Chris H and Tom S. were able to log
their first Gold Height claims and JB, Matt W, Pete S, Wyn D, Ron J
and Chris W also easily surpassed Gold Height levels. Former North Hill
member, Chris D (son of Dasher), knocked out a Diamond Height claim.
Later in the day, Ruth, Nick H, Rowan and Ian H played on the Benarty
ridge.

Not content with just going for height, Martin W, Pete St and
Wyn explored the Scottish mountains proper. Ron and Chris W in
the ASH and Matt even had a Close Encounter of the Third Kind.

Pete found some lift near Killin |
All in all, a day to remember: crystal clear with wave smooth as glass can only be described as proper epic and congratulatory drinks flowed from the Portmoak bar later. Looking forward to Friday's highs and lows....
Friday dawned with a low grey overcast and the dreaded easterly wind. Tom, Ian H, Nick H, Wyn and Marie went sight-seeing and every one else went home. - Tom
