Publisher's Synopsis
'Treasures of reality yet unknown await discovery among inaccessible peaks at the ends of the earth, still more on the old and familiar hills at our very doorstep, most of all within each mountaineer. The truth is that in getting to know mountains he gets to know himself.'
If mountaineering books are to be measured by their inspirational value, then Undiscovered Scotland is a must-read for all climbers and walkers.
W.H. Murray explores the most challenging and remote routes of Scottish mountaineering, venturing into the heart of these wild hills. The white magnetism of winter moonlight and the still peace of evenings spent in wilderness are depictions of mountains that have been traversed by few, but which hold treasures to delight the many.
Undiscovered Scotland is a manifesto for bold adventures into the unknown, yet is suffused with the comradeship of mountain days. These are the stories of adventures that will inspire, encourage and salve the mind.
