  • AN TEALLACH COMES ALIVE It’S One of Our Finest Mountains
    James Hawkins BEHIND THE PICTURE AN TEALLACH COMES ALIVE It’s one of our finest mountains. Now it has the painting it deserves. And it’s all thanks to a remarkable artist with a passion for colour, geology and wilderness walking. WORDS DAN ASPEL PICTURE JAMES HAWKINS ames Hawkins speaks for anyone who’s ever seen the most dramatically notched 1062m mountain in Britain when he says “An Teallach is amazing”. What Trail couldn’t get him to say (but we can now, to spare his modesty) is that his paintings of this Scottish peak capture it like nothing else you’re likely to lay eyes on. Take the image printed here. The landscape is lashed by reedy needles of rain above a shimmering foreground of heather and brush. There’s a blurry unreality to some parts and an arresting crispness to others. The mountain outline at its centre is stark. But that’s just our opinion; to find out how James makes such vivid images, we spoke to the man himself. “Being out on the hill is many experiences in one,” says the 37-year resident of Loch Broom’s shores, “and there’s a lot of movement – from the walker themselves, to the wind around them, to the trees. Trying to distil all of that, you have to create something more than just a single static image.” To achieve these he uses “a combination of memory, drawing and photographs”. This means that once back in the studio after – very likely – many walks, he’ll run a slideshow of all the images he’s collected of a certain peak and draw inspiration from “theJ colour in a bit of sky”, or “a profile of a mountain from a neighbouring summit”.

  • Charlie Ramsay and Me: a Tale of Obsession
    SheepSheet Autumn 2015 Johnnie Watson, the Laughing Cavalier – 12th in the 2015 Montane Spine Race Notes from the Editor: It’s been a while and my apologies for the lengthy hiatus between issues but welcome all to the latest edition of the Sheepsheet, Calder Valley Fell Runner’s periodic glimpse into the weird and wonderful world of fell running, adventure racing, and outdoor self-flagellation in general. All of us enjoy some of those, but one man has demonstrated remarkable fortitude in all three at once. It’s been a while since he did it, and my apologies to Johnnie in particular for the lateness of this edition hitting the shelves. His monumental achievement should have been heralded much sooner, but a fanfare is a fanfare, and let’s all blow our bugle to our very own Johnnie Watson for his magnificent 12th place in Montane’ Spine Race. The race is labelled as Britain’s Most Brutal Race, so by my reckoning that makes Johnny the 12th most brutal man in Britain – GRRRRRRR!!!! Not bad for a nurse from Pye Nest! Well done Johnny, and not all of it in borrowed kit either! Johnnie tells us more of his odyssey up central England later. Recent months, as always, have seen superb performances and achievements from numerous club members, some of which are featured here for your enjoyment. We have seen the stellar progression of Ben Mounsey into an international-class runner, which in turn has guaranteed him residency on the back pages of the local sporting press. Again, well done Ben, it’s been a pleasure to report on your heroics and nobody deserves it more due to your graft, skill and determination.

  • Archaeology Development Plan for the Small Isles: Canna, Eigg, Muck
    Highland Archaeology Services Ltd Archaeology Development Plan for the Small Isles: Canna, Eigg, Muck, Rùm Report No: HAS051202 Client The Small Isles Community Council Date December 2005 Archaeology Development Plan for the Small Isles December 2005 Summary This report sets out general recommendations and specific proposals for the development of archaeology on and for the Small Isles of Canna, Eigg, Muck and Rùm. It reviews the islands’ history, archaeology and current management and visitor issues, and makes recommendations. Recommendations include ¾ Improved co-ordination and communication between the islands ¾ An organisational framework and a resident project officer ¾ Policies – research, establishing baseline information, assessment of significance, promotion and protection ¾ Audience development work ¾ Specific projects - a website; a guidebook; waymarked trails suitable for different interests and abilities; a combined museum and archive; and a pioneering GPS based interpretation system ¾ Enhanced use of Gaelic Initial proposals for implementation are included, and Access and Audience Development Plans are attached as appendices. The next stage will be to agree and implement follow-up projects Vision The vision for the archaeology of the Small Isles is of a valued resource providing sustainable and growing benefits to community cohesion, identity, education, and the economy, while avoiding unnecessary damage to the archaeological resource itself or other conservation interests. Acknowledgements The idea of a Development Plan for Archaeology arose from a meeting of the Isle of Eigg Historical Society in 2004. Its development was funded and supported by the Highland Council, Lochaber Enterprise, Historic Scotland, the National Trust for Scotland, Scottish Natural Heritage, and the Isle of Eigg Heritage Trust, and much help was also received from individual islanders and others.

  • Grey Corries, Golden Days by MIKE KENT
    34 GREY CORRIES, GOLDEN DAYS MIKE KENT My days in the Grey Corries began one Aberdeen Spring Holiday, late on a Friday afternoon. Friends were motoring down to stay in Lochaber for the long weekend and I took the opportunity of a lift, arranging to come back with them on the Monday night. Leaving Aberdeen early in the afternoon, I was very soon standing alone just off the A82 outside Spean Bridge. View of Grey Corries Massif from near Spean Bridge. (Drawing by Mike Kent) The weekend weather promised to be settled, with high pressure squatting over the country like a great warm hen, protecting all us wee birds from the vagaries of the normal climate. It was 4.30 p.m. and I set off briskly wanting to camp high on that first night. The road climbed steadily across open grassland then plunged through vernal green mature larches into the depths of the Leanachan Forest. After Theanother 2 km Cairngormthe farm of Leanachan appeared, alon e Clubin its clearing in the forest. There, concentrating on avoiding unplumbed depths of mud, I lost the path that I wanted so I struck straight up the hill through the trees heading for the disused tramway that ran from Loch Treig to Fort William during construction of the aqueduct to the smelter. Now it lies abandoned along the contour of the hill just fifty metres below the 'parallel road' at 260 m. Those shore line signatures of a long gone ice-dammed lake are well enough known in Glen Roy but also can be found on the hills around Glen Spean.
