In THE FIRST FIFTY, controversial television presenter Muriel Gray, herself the conqueror of more than 100 of the legendary mountains over 3,000 feet, tells all. She introduces you to some of her favourite Munro walks, describes the best routes, the equipment you'll need and the safety precautions you should take. But she also debunks the Munro-baggers, explaining in her uniquely witty, iconoclastic style, the real joy of climbing the Munros: the solitude, the camaraderie, the wildlife, the sense of achievement that she, a self-confessed 'eight stone peroxide blonde', has discovered in her fifteen years of beardlessly walking the high peaks of her native Scotland.
