Very romantic. But I love that the british isles highest mountain according to Wiki is only 4400 ft and they were stranded. I know bad weather can make anything a bad situation, but still seems funny especially with our local mountains and some of the 'super hikers' on this board

The weather in Scotland is a wee bit more rugged than that around Palm Springs, as this link attests:
