It was a real inspiration to meet and chat to Inverness's own Olympian Megan Keith at Sunday's Torvean junior parkrun before she heads to Paris to take part in the 10,000m final 🏃‍♀️ Good luck Megan, we'll all be cheering you on! inverness-courier.co.uk/news/pictures-…

A true legend of mountain rescue. Thank you for everything you've done and fought for.

@HNM_WClark @HighlandCross And they were great interviews and articles at the finish, Will. Good stuff! Really enjoyed this one in particular: inverness-courier.co.uk/sport/watch-ne…

Also good luck to more machine than man @BL6John who is having another crack at the @HighlandCross I’d have a shot myself. But somebody has to do the interviews at the finishing line.

This Saturday sees the 40th staging of the @HighlandCross. I spoke to the event founders Calum Munro and Gerry Grant to learn more about how it all began, why it's such a special occasion and what the future holds... inverness-courier.co.uk/news/forty-yea…

I'll be going to visit this exhibition at Inverness Library soon, looks fascinating! inverness-courier.co.uk/news/the-man-b…

A great evening walk at Dunbeath for #FingerpostFriday @ScotWays - this sign is close to the ruined Old Milton Inn, across a suitably rickety bridge. The route includes a visit to Dunbeath Broch @TheBrochProject and if you go slightly further up the strath, the Prisoner's Leap.

Enjoyed a little off-road ride out to the bucket bridge over the Findhorn at Ruthven, where I spoke to Steve Smirthwaite about his latest Trailmap and his 20+ years of mapping the Highlands with a focus on exploring by bike. More on this to come in #ActiveOutdoors soon...

Great to see our talented team recognised at the @ScotPressAwards with 6 shortlists - @InvCourier for Campaign & Front Page; @HNM_AHendry, @sgmaclennan1 & @HNM_lmcblane for Weekly Journalist; @HNM_cchristie for Sports Writer. Well done to everyone who made the shortlist 👏🏻

📢#KidicalMass #Inverness ride this Saturday. We'd love to see you there. From wobbly beginners to confident cyclists, everyone welcome to join in the fun. #safestreetsnow #streetsforkids #activetravel #cycletohealth #cycleforclimate #pedalpower #pedalpowered #cutcarmiles

A railway once branched off the Edinburgh-Carlisle Waverley line at St Boswells in the Borders and led the ten-and-a-half miles to Kelso. Like so many of these once vital lines, this North British Railway branch is long gone. bl6.co.uk/wordpress/2024…

Looking through the archives and I found this one for #fingerpostfriday It was on the Corrieyairick Pass on 24 August 1996. Anyone know if it’s still there?

We’re organising a Kidical Mass on 20th April - tying in with a national day of action for #safestreetsnow and the @KinderaufsRad spring action! Join us at in Bellfield Park for a 13.30 departure! cyclesprog.co.uk/blog/kidical-m…

Any suggestions what this could be from? #BirdID #feather

Duncansby Light at Night - what a spectacular way to celebrate the centenary of the lighthouse. @Baseline53 @NLB_UK @LythArtsCentre johnogroat-journal.co.uk/news/a-constan…

This looked like a great show at John O’Groats last night put on by @LythArtsCentre . Brilliant review by @HNM_AHendry and some excellent photos too. johnogroat-journal.co.uk/news/a-constan…

Just been looking at @BL6John's Active Outdoors newsletter. Content that makes you want to get out there, a healthy dose of Ross-shire and a swish colour scheme. How to get involved? 👇

Read the incredible story of a woman who was rescued 50 years ago at the Falls of Glomach by the Kintail Mountain Rescue Team when she was an 11-year-old girl - missing death by feet, according to reports. ross-shirejournal.co.uk/news/woman-res…

@AndyH_Engineer Glad to hear there are still some untried routes in there for you! I'd do another one (or more) if I could find the time!

Making good use of a Waterstones voucher from Christmas. Quite a few routes I've not tried yet @BL6John

A little happy new year video from my first run of 2024 😃🏃‍♂️🎉
