Special mountain moment

I’m one of the regional coordinators for OutdoorLads, the national charity that organises outdoor adventures for gay and bisexual men. This picture was taken while staying in Braemar for our Scottish Christmas weekend. After a fivehour hike up Glen Lui from Linn of Dee, under darkness we climbed up through the dense cloud in Coire Odhar to break through with this view of Cairn Toul. Most of our group that day had never seen a Brocken spectre, but even for those who had, it was a pretty special moment. Bryan Cosgrove, Manchester
