Folks,

Have a read of my first blog post containing highlights of last season at http://www.mistymountainhop.net/2014/08/a-precursory-glance/ and let me know what you think. Check out the Chamonix and Fontainebleau trip reports too. Constructive criticism welcome! My aim is blog regularly during the Scottish Winter Climbing season so stay tuned for more posts.

Cheers

That's my kind of blog - great pics with long captions rather than essays. Nice work. Bookmarked.

If you could put the grade and name of the routes in the pictures and in the text of the blog it gives the reader perspective.

Thanks guys for the comments, I'll keep the format the same. Regarding including the grades, I wasn't sure whether to or not beacuse if someone was interested they could just follow the link to the route and find out. Grades are obviously meaningless to non-climbers too. That said it does give some context!

Cheers
