Glen Lochay Rudeness
It's customary in the hills to greet fellow walkers with at least a nod, usually a hello and often a conversation about the weather. When you are out in remote and unpopulated areas it often gladdens the heart to see other similar minded people. If you see other walkers at a distance a cheery wave usually suffices.
Yesterday on Meall Glas in Glen Lochay, it was a cheery wave that was offered to two people coming down as we were ascending. These two anonymous walkers simply stopped and stared around 40m away. NO nod, no greeting and certainly no returned wave. It pissed me off for the next hour. I said rude things about them. You know who you are. Next time return the wave. Consider this post your chastisement. |
