Just one week until entries open for TGOC25.The November issue of TGO Magazine is now out with some great coverage of the Highlands including stories of the 2024 TGO Challenge. Great inspiration for anyone thinking about participating in 2025. Congratulations to those who contributed. Those who have had articles published will receive a £50 voucher from Ultralight Outdoor Gear.Go deeper into the rugged North-West Highlands in new #TheGreatOutdoors 🌄🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 For some, the mountain appeal of Scotland is a numbers game. More densely packed than anywhere on our small island with 222 Corbetts to climb and many more Munros – 282 at last count – not to mention the Grahams, Munro Tops, and Donalds peppered across the country from the Grampians to the Cairngorm plateau. Sometimes it feels as though there are more mountains than people – a harrowing hangover of the Clearances. But it’s more than topography. More, even, than a long geological story told by it's oldest rocks, situated in the North-West Highlands, the remote region which holds the gaze of this issue. To explore the beauty of Scotland in Autumn in this special issue, we look to those who have dedicated decades to becoming experts in this landscape and culture.🏔 Alex Nail Photography on false starts in the Fisherfields📜 Gemma Smith walks into a storied Assynt🥾 James Roddie Photography guides us through Portree🎼 Morvern-inspired music by local composer Lisa Robertson⛺ TGO Challenge Class of ‘24 recall coast-to-coast epics🍄 Forage ethically this Autumn with Maymana Arefin🎧 Mary-Ann Ochota on mountain music and loud human joy 🍂 10 beautiful woodland walks up and down Britain🎨 Jim Perrin paints a portrait of Mow Cop🧤 Honest reviews of the best winter gloves & head torches📸: Adam Raja CampbellRead all this and more in the latest issue:www.thegreatoutdoorsmag.com/latest-issue/discover-the-north-west-highlands-in-our-november-issue/ ...
