Ben Lomond Climb

bonnie banks!)

These images are all taken on a climb to the top of Ben Lomond (974 meters). Ben Lomond is classified as a Munro, which is any "mountain" in Britain that is higher than 3,000 feet. Hill walkers here like to "bag Munros" -AKA try to climb all the Munros they can. I've only bagged two so far, Ben Nevis (the tallest, with Allison), and the one pictured here, Ben Lomond, with my friend Adriane. It's amazing! The weather was very nice and quite warm at the bottom, but by the time we reached the top it was hailing and absolutely freezing-we were in the clouds! Ben Lomond is only an hours drive from our flat!
