New Wave Ski arrives! so excited!

The evolutionary step has arrived, still sitting but so much faster! FORMULA ONE V MICRA!

I have just returned to find a very sexy package at home!

A new custom Jemski, wave ski, it looks amazing, is really well finished and the costumer care was excellent!

check out http://www.jemski.co.uk/ and get one! Jem was really helpful over the whole process, which, is some what particular to each person, style, experience, weight etc even to my own graphic wishes.

So all i need to do now is get on it, but its flat, but next week i head to Tiree for 3 weeks so something will push in there! it better! I expect to have a few kickings and swims, but that's part of the fun i guess?

We were pleased to have 'Children First' return to Tavool House this summer, a new group of young people spent a week with us doing a variety of adventure activities on Mull.

A challenging week for everyone which included, coasteering, climbing, gorge scrambling and camping to name a few activities with http://www.hebrideanpursuits.com/.

The weather was fantastic and the young people were charming, amusing and up for the action.

We look forward to them visiting again soon! all agreed they would return for more action.

The Wilderness Walk, a classic route on Mull's west coast.

Looking along the Wilderness with Ulva in background.

Nick enjoying a treshnish sunset.

Only at low water can you get round this point!

The start on the Burg, setting sun and warm breezes, just perfect.

Andy, Nick and Liam went for a blast around the Wilderness, on The Ardmenach Peninsula of the Burg.

A beautiful evening was had with the sun setting over the Treshnish Islands and Coll beyond.

It took 3 and half hours to get around following some very thin and steep goat tracks.

This walk is tidal but can be re routed up and over steep grass banks to avoid the high tides.

An ascent from sea level to 500m feels much bigger as you ascend and descend back to Tavool House on the north coast of Loch Scridain.

This amazing walk can involve a slower trip and camping on the wilderness is something everyone should experience!

Hordle Pupils were back again to have An adventure with us at Tavool House on Mull.

With 30 children to work with we had our work cut out to entertain them all!

Day one, saw everyone working in teams on the Tavool Challenge, a combination of gorge scrambling, tree climbing, orienteering and 'ready steady cook' competition. the challenge was hugely competitive and the teams really went few for it!

The grounds of the house rang out with laughter and entusiatic banter.

Day two, we took the school down to Erraid and a dya of climbing and abseiling on the perfect pink Granite, even with large Numbers we achieved loads of climbs etc. The youngsters were amazed at the white shell beaches and emerald waters.

A couple of really lovely days with great fun and well behaved young people, as always a pleasure and it was fantastic to see the dedicated and very helpful Teaching staff once more.

Weekend camp, not bad hey!

This weekend I had some time off!

We headed to Kerrera to camp near Gylen Castle.

Andy, Gill and Ben were joined by Graeme, Gemma and Rebecca for her first wild camp.

The weather was amazing yet again, warm and breezy the island of Kerrera was just lovely.

Camping under the castle of Gylen was charming and the views to the islands of Jura, Scarba etc was beautiful.

Just five Min's from Oban, the island offers a great days walk around it or some enjoyable walking over its moors.

Back to Mull to work on Monday, i hope the weather holds?

After work we ventured into some exciting and remote corners of Mull as part of our on going love of playing outside!

We recorded the second descent of The Ben More Canyon and worked on some thin steep walls at the Gillies crag.

The Weather help so much, dry sunny and a gentle NE wind to keep the beasties off all added up to load of fun!

The highlight was a wonderful bivi on Ulva on Tuesday night!

Mid summer week on Mull.

Ulva, calm warm and a slight breeze from the se, no midges!

Started so wet and ended so warm and sunny!

Hebridean Pursuits were working with a young carers group form Ayrshire this week.

The young folk took part in a multi activity residential.

We climbed, canyoned, scrambled, walked and camped and kayaked and snorkeled and well loads!

The group really put 100% into the whole adventure.

The photos say it all really!
