Hall Highlights 2000:

David Hoyle

After a relatively uninspiring 1999 visiting 'hills' in the south of England, 2000 was altogether better, and my trips away were largely sunny and dry. Pembrokeshire at Easter was mostly dry but windy. Battled through undergrowth to reach the Brandy Hill trig. I should probably have just walked diagonally across a field, but it would have been in full view should the farmer have been driving along the road at that moment (though it would have been over in five minutes). This more positive approach certainly worked on Rhos Ymryson two days later. Two of the three week-long trips to Scotland were entirely blue skies and sunshine. Highlights were Sgurr nan Eugallt and other edge-of-Knoydart hills in April/May and again in early July. Completed my new and old Donalds on Meikle Millyea in October; on my previous visit I had mistakenly headed off down after reaching the trig point, as I am sure others have done.
