I am a Male Walker, in my late 40s, based near Edinburgh

My Message: Hi, I am Stephen. Looking for walking / camping companions who like to explore remote places in Scotland. I work full time but spend as much of my free time as possible walking/wild camping in the North / West of Scotland. Find it hard to organise / persuade family and friends! I am of a reasonable fitness and can just about cope with a map and compass. I am up for Corbetts / Munros but equally like nice costal day hikes. I am skilled camper, love finding remote camping spots (I know a few) and heading out for day walks 5-7 hours ideally. Be great to share this with folk that share my passion for it. I love beautiful remote costal spots with wildlife but no crowds. Happy to take the lead with driving / camping. I would love to meet people that are as enthusiastic about it as me, for day hikes or a wild camp. I am pretty easy going, organised and a good companion.

My Preferred Walk Grades*: 5:6:7:8:9:

My Preferred Walk Areas:
North West Scotland; North East Scotland; Southern Scotland;

A bit more about me:

I can cope with a little bit of scrambling if it is short and there are no steep drops. With regard to the weather, this is the UK so it's going to rain sooner or later isn't it? Fine with me, I've got waterproofs. I'm not bothered about dogs one way or the other. To be honest, my map reading & navigation skills are a bit averagely average. I can drive and have a car.

I am also interested in:

Wild Camping - Camping out in the wilds well away from anyone & any facilities;
Peak Bagging - where the aim is to climb all the hills or mountains on a particular list such as 'bagging' all the Wainwrights or Munros;

Important: For the avoidence of doubt I am definitely not looking for anything other than someone to go walking with.
