This week we had the pleasure of the Performance Climbers & the Outdoor Ed'ers on a whole session together. We kept it simple with a quick dash up the steep, lumpy summit of Dumgoyne, just north of Strathblane. My, it's unrelentingly steep. But the views are worth it: a beautiful three hundred and sixty degrees of bluey, bright mountains, shining lochs and angular tower blocks of Glasgow. How lucky are we to live in a city which has such quick access to this landscape - even for our weekly Games sessions to stretch our limbs, talk about the important stuff and get the heart rate up. Pictures probably show it best....
Because we were pushed for time this session, we took the quickest, and steepest route up.
And we missed the heavy showers!

It's lovely to have new S4 pupils joining our team.
I hope this photo is a reflection of how Blythe felt after the exhilaration of the climb.
Oops, that didn't take long: the Outdoor Education long standing, head standing tradition. And so it continues...
While concentrating on the steep descent, we were treated to stunning views north and west.
