    Who am I?

    Kevin Johnston

    Exploring the hills and glens of Scotland on foot is my passion. A quick cycle, a days snowboarding or a multi-day hike, I'm happiest discovering something new about our gorgeous country and hopefully I can motivate others to do the same. I try my hand at most things, snowboarding, film making, sheep shearing, eating, sports, sports bars, other bars, barbells etc. Come along and see for yourself.

    Just an ordinary, cold, sunny day with Neil on the Berwickshire Coastal Path from Dowlaw to St Abbs. With added seals! We got so close to them, the wee white ones are just pups, only a couple of weeks old.
    The Linn of Dee was partially frozen this morning! No wonder as the temperature was a frosty -8. Glorious day bumbling around Glen Dee and the Lairig Ghru.
    Cairngorm summit, early yesterday. I'd have stopped for lunch if it wasn't for the following reasons: 
a) The wind was gusting at about 50mph.
b) The temperature/windchill was around -5C.
c) The views were non existent.
d) It was only 10am...
