How many of us would love to spend a day walking with Chris Townsend? Someone well known around the world as an outdoor writer, photographer, blogger, conversationalist, head of the Mountaineering Council of Scotland and a long distance walker extraordinare. Well David Lintern was one such lucky guy and joined Chris for a long walk in January 2011 in the deep snow on the Caingorms.
This is the first of a fascinating three part series where they walk together and discuss the art of long distance walking.
