MAGIC of the MOUNTAINS



BEN NEVIS (SCOTLAND) AWESOME IN WINTER

The MOUNTAINS of Britain are magnificent
SCAFELL PIKE (England) pinnacle of the English Lake District
SNOWDEN (Wales) mystical summit of the principality
BEN NEVIS (Scotland) training ground for UK Alpinists
SLIEVE DONARD (N Ireland)  home of the "Little People"

What is it about Mountains 
that is so so alluring ?
Their majesty ~ their loneliness
Their ruggedness ~ their peace
or the feeling of being nearer Heaven ? 

All Human Life is there ~ all nationalities
CHILDREN  getting their first glimpse and grip of rock
TEENS  fearless and keen to show off their skills
FAMILIES  enjoying the Mountains together
SERIOUS Fell walkers ~ SUICIDAL Rock climbers
GERIATRICS  making one last pilgrimage to their 
beloved Mountain Peaks ~ slowly but surely !
POTHOLERS ~ who climb down instead of up !

There is a MAGIC in the MOUNTAINS
and the TOPS offer much more excitement
and satisfaction than the average topless beach !

Thanks for reading ~ hope you get to the mountains this year

  2. Thanks CM I knew you would love this because it would remind you of your own beloved Magyar Mountains. I also knew the very mention of Ireland would make you heart beat faster. LOL Pandito XOX
