Doesn't matter if it's your own rubbish or someone else's - the hills will look better without it. So, if you can, #TakItHame https://t.co/RPRPK8TEU5

@Tae_the_north @markjtennant @SmidgeForecast Absolutely 100% essential kit in any summer situation in Scotland!

This week's weather 95% chance of midge. We got off relatively lightly in Glen Affric @markjtennant! My video's got nothing on this!

Midges! Loch Monar this morning #5DegreesWest

[Mountaineering Scotland @Mountain_Scot]

Remember, whether you're on the wide Cairngorm plateau or the pointy hills out west, losing height quickly isn't always easy, so watch the forecast and developing conditions for lightning. Don't leave a retreat to the last minute. https://t.co/dYTXjy0P2y
