The Second Man on the Rope: Mountain Days with Davie

Ranging from Nevis to Glencoe, from the Cuillin to the Cairngorms, this book weaves the story of a friendship amongst witty-and often alarming-tales of mountaineering mishaps. Winter avalanches, rats in bothies and Brummies in baseball boots, these two adventurers take on the Scottish hills with wit and humour. Second Man on the Rope is a story of a beautiful friendship forged in the hills.
