Ben Hope, Midwinter
Painting No. 37
The Gaelic “Ben” meaning “mountain”, and the Norse “Hop” for “bay”, make Ben Hope the Mountain of the Bay. At 3040ft (927m), it is our most northerly Munro, as all Scottish peaks over 3000ft are known. In the clear frosty air of one midwinter afternoon, the summit looked tantalisingly close, but time was shorter than distance and we turned back, our wisdom confirmed moments later as a hail storm hit us. It is often difficult to know when to turn around - to judge when tenacity has degen-erated into stub-borness - but the first is rooted in con-viction and courage, and the other merely in pride.
