Invaluable information on access, mapping and mountain safety
After walking bits of it, bits of it backwards, above and around it, and a formal ‘Not the West Highland Way’, Ronald Turnbull finally gave in… and walked the West Highland Way in March 2008. He still thinks not doing bits of it is even better. Ronald has won awards for his writing – the Outdoor Writers and Photographers Guild Award for excellence six times, in four different categories; and also for his walking – the Fell Running Association’s long distance trophy for a journey over all the 2000ft hills of southern Scotland. He particularly enjoys unrolling his bivvy bag on summits large or small, and researching this book he has ‘bagged’ Ben Lui, Conic Hill and A’ Chruach on Rannoch Moor. His previous books for Cicerone include Three Peaks Ten Tors on long-distance and challenge walks, The Book of the Bivvy, and Ben Nevis and Glen Coe.
