再爬苏格兰Cobbler山

地平线

前天参加学校登山协会开学后的第一次周末活动，爬Cobbler山，离格拉斯哥一个小时的车程，Loch Long湖边的一个著名的徒步路线。三个月前曾经和Gui两人去爬过，风景不错，不过那次下了一整天的雨，这一次去还好，刚开始下了一段时间时大时小的雨，快到山顶时，天气转好，阳光把荒原点燃。可惜的是我的相机没电了，出发前一天特意充满了的，所以没带备用电池，不知道出了什么问题。

刚才收到Paul发来的的这次活动的一些照片，和大家分享一下：

快到山顶时，阳光出来了：）

Ross正在往山上跑。

山顶的风好大，似乎要把人吹起，我在喊：I believe I can fly！

在山顶，大家只能背风而坐。

下山途中，远处是长湖（loch long），大家在扭头看着远处的Malcolm爬上了一个孤零零的石头山。

下山途中，金光四射，以Cobbler为背景再照一张留影。

身穿黄衣正在跑的是David，现任协会主席，一个很不错的苏格兰小伙子，头上戴着据说是他奶奶的帽子。

Malcolm带了一大瓶热橙汁，下山后回到停车场，正在给大家分。

最后附上Malcolm写的简短的报告：

Alrite troops,

el presidente has asked me to do a wee trip report of the walks last weekend, for those of you who either weren't there or didnt have a clue where/what we walked up.

Kick-off was supposed to be 9am on Sat, unfortunately a few poor souls didnt get the time-changing email, and were left dossing about by the union from 8 till 9. Anyways, 20 folk piled into the van and 2 cars for the trip up to the cobbler, near Arrochar. The weather started off a wee bit character-building, with strong winds and heavy rain, as we all trudged up the path. When we neared the top however, the rain stopped and the cloud lifted slightly, giving glimpses of a view accross Argyll. From the top we split up, some people heading off round the south peak, and some joining Ross on his 2nd(!) trip up to the top that day and exploring the north peak. After walking down in finer weather, we had a wee refreshment stop in the village inn, a small but characterful little pub on the shores of loch long, before the drive home.
