Highland Hi-visibility

Brrr it looks cold!
Neon green John proves he is indeed outstanding in his field. Or at least out, standing in his field.

Yes the white specks to the right of John are indeed falling snowflakes. But a wee dram of Scotland's finest export seems to keep him warm and cheerful in the face of a wintry exercise.






John's day starts well before 8, when the whole class breakfasts, then heads out for a full 8+ hour day trekking around looking at and mapping rocks of all description. Exhausted and frozen, they return to base (the hotel) for a clean-up and a meal, then its hours more of writing up their notes and inking out their maps. The long day ends when John turns in at 10.00pm. No days off, and (to John's great dismay) no side trips to the local distilleries!

Still, views like this tend to make it all worthwhile! I will post more when and as John texts me more stunning photos from his mobile phone camera.
