EP 19: "Bagging Munros" with Garry Stevenson from Being Scottish
Scotland has its own name for mountains - they're called Munros. Well, anything over 3000 ft is a Munro, anyway. There are nearly 300 of them and there's a whole sub-culture in Scotland of people trying to climb them. It's called Munro-bagging.
We asked noted Munro-bagger Garry Stevenson from Being Scottish to tell us all about his experience bagging Munros. In this episode we cover:
- Scotland's result in the recent Euro Cup
- How he got into Munro-bagging
- The hardest Munro he has ever climbed
- The Munro he'd recommend people start with
