Who?
01
My name is Mark Scoular. I created Alpine Studios in memory of my friend and mentor Peter Locke. Originally as a place to share my photographs, it’s developed into a passion project that’s set to take up the next 20 years of my life.
I’m hoping to share this journey with not only my son, but friends and family along the way. If you’d like to join us on any of our munro bagging adventures, then do get in touch!
What?
02
A Munro is a mountain in Scotland that stands at least 3,000 feet (914 meters) above sea level, named after Sir Hugh Munro, who first cataloged these peaks in 1891. Scotland is home to 282 Munros, each offering unique landscapes that vary from dramatic cliffs and rugged terrain to expansive plateaus and scenic glens. Climbing these peaks has become a rite of passage for hikers, with many attempting to “bag” all of them as a personal challenge and to experience Scotland’s diverse natural beauty.
Why?
03
Back in the early 2000s, after suffering worsening foot-drop, I was diagnosed with HNPP. Basically a genetic condition that leaves me with muscle weakness and nerve problems that put paid to any chance of continuing my hockey career.
In 2024 I turned 40, and after 20 years of being fairly idle behind a computer screen, I joined up for a Charity Challenge through my work to climb Ben Nevis. After climbing a few Munro’s in training, the bug bit me hard, and I’ve been desperate to climb them all.
I love my photography, so it made sense to try and share some of what we experience with those of you that can’t make it up a Munro.
When?
04
My condition means that recovering from a hike takes me up to a week at a time. My foot-drop gets really bad after about 10 miles, so this is going to take me a while.
Unfortunately though, this truly is a race against time, the older I get the worse my condition will progress. So the quicker I can do these Munro’s, the better. I’m aiming for 10 years, but I think it may be closer to 20 years.
I’d love it if you came along for this journey, and hopefully we can create a set of memories my son can look back on for years to come.
