Hi Crescent, I'm subbing your article on Ben Nevis. I have looked around at all the links in the copy, and this one is evidently part of a trilogy, together with the one on Preparations for Hiking and Loch Na Gar. But I don't have those articles in my batch and you know the rule about how links can only be to approved entries. Also, you have assumed that I know what a Munro is. I thought it might be a bit of Scottish slang and had a look in THAT article, but no, it appears to be a unit of measurement for mountains. Interesting. Could you tell me just what it is, and I'll footnote the term.

Apart from that, I am spell-checking and fiddling a couple of sentence constructions, but find the article "worthy of acceptance."
