This year sees the 80th anniversary of the original opening of the
CIC Hut on Ben Nevis. It also sees the completion of a major new
extension at the hut. A photo of Charles Inglis Clark climbing on
Salisbury Crags in Edinburgh as a young boy accompanies an article
by former hut custodian Gerry Peet. This is following by a profile
of Graham Macphee, who in the 1930s took full advantage of the
hut's location to pioneer a number of new routes on the North Face
when writing the first guidebook to the mountain. Gordon Smith also
writes again about his early winter adventures on Ben Nevis. This
year also sees the 70th anniversary of the first Greater Traverse
of the Cuillin by Charleson and Forde. This event is marked by
several articles relating to Skye including one by Forde's
daughter, Helen. There are lots of other stuff including climbing
in Yosemite, paragliding in Torridon and Corbett bagging, plus
details of all the rew routes done in Scotland over the last year.
