  • The Cairngorm Club Journal 015, 1900
    GLENCOE. BY GEORGE DUNCAN. IN a well-known, passage, Macaulay describes Glencoe, the Glen of "Weeping, as " the most dreary and melancholy of all the Scottish passes, the very Valley of the Shadow of Death. Mists and storms", he says, "brood over it through the greater part of the finest summer, and, even on those rare days when the sun is bright and when there is no cloud in the sky, the impression made by the land- scape is sad and awful". Macaulay's description is, perhaps, surcharged with gloom. Glencoe has its bright days, when the dark frowning precipices look less dark, and the green of the valleys and the hillsides seems greener, and when even Loch Triochatan, that " most sullen and gloomy of mountain pools ", lies smiling in the sunlight. But that a certain undefined feeling of melancholy, due as much perhaps to the haunting memories of the awful tragedy of the Massacre as to the actual desolation of the scenery, is apt to steal over one, few visitors to the Glen will, I think, venture to deny. Glencoe is, indeed, full of historical and romantic interest. Near Ballachulish Pier, on Loch Leven, the landing-place for the Glen, is shown the scene of the Appin Murder, and the site of the gibbet where " James of the Glens " suffered is not far off. It is still told, too, though with some characteristic Highland reserve, how Theunjust hiCairngorms condemnation was, and you may eve Clubn be able to find out that the real murderer of Glenure was a Cameron from Mamore.

  • North of the Border
    NORTH OF THE BORDER Scotland's size, sheer variety, and huge number of mountaineering opportunities meant that it was a must if a long weekend or more was available. Inevitably, so many trips spawned many a tale……… Scottish winter climbing in the GMC began in 1968 when Terry Clare, Alan Cowderoy (Cowboy), Maurice Ewing and Fred Heywood went up to Glencoe for the Christmas holiday, travelling up in Terry's old Wolseley, which consumed oil and petrol in equal proportions. They stayed at the bunkhouse at Clachaig. Cowboy decided to try and drink his way through the extensive whisky menu and later, sadly, christened his new and very expensive sleeping bag. They did the Clachaig Gully, splashing their way through supposedly frozen waterfalls. On Christmas Eve they did the Aonach Eagach, starting and finishing in the dark, and considered it good training for the Alps trip that Alan Rouse had planned for himself, Fred and Maurice the following summer. On Christmas Day: "We found that Scotland was closed and the only way we could get a drink was to buy Christmas Dinner at an hotel. Unfortunately the hotels had a dress code". In the early seventies the routine was to get Maurice Ewing, the Club's fastest driver, to hire a car. Then, full of climbers and gear, it was driven at breakneck speeds to Glencoe and Fort William. Of the climbs done there is little recall but the drive there and back, in "a little over four hours" has certainly stuck in the memories of those who were there.

  • A Century of Mountaineering in Scotland
    A Century of Mountaineering in Scotland WD BROOKER (Plates 84-86) It is always curious to read as history what one has experienced oneself. Max Betoff Although there had been ephemeral precursors, it was in 1889 that the first mountaineering clubs in Scotland held their inaugural meetings: the Cairngorm Club in Aberdeen on 9 January and the Scottish Mountaineering Club in Glasgow on II February. They are thus the oldest clubs in Britain, apart from the Alpine Club itself. They began differently, with the Cairngorm Club actually being founded on 22June 1887 by six friends who were passing the night at the Shelter Stone of Loch Avon, in order to celebrate the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria with fireworks on the summit of Ben Macdui. They resolved to form 'a Cairngorm Club' and 18 months later the new club was formally constituted. The SMC, on the other hand, owed its origin to a letter in the Glasgow Herald from WW Naismith, suggesting a Scottish Alpine Club. This led to further letters and a public meeting at which 'The Scottish Mountaineering Club' was constituted. As the origins of these clubs differed, so did their character. The Cairngorm Club was focused on Aberdeen and the Cairngorms, with the emphasis on hill-walking activity often involving large-scale club excursions. Although there were no ladies initially, it has always been open to both sexes. Today, with over 400 members, it is the largest of the 100 or so clubs in the Mountaineering Council of Scotland. The SMC was founded in Glasgow, but nearly half of its membership came from other parts of the country and its role has been more of a national club.
