Each week I post a photograph of something that I have seen, like or has just made me laugh.
Back by popular demand (last post was Christmas day 2010) as I slowly ease myself back into the blogosphere are OB's magic moments. Where each Friday I post a picture of somthing that I have snapped on my camera and it has made me smile.
This week as I was transferring files to my new computer (MacBook Pro - in case you wanted to know) I came across some Packrafting photographs. Now I came across the concept of Packrafting a few years ago when I was away working on an expedition up in Alaska. They are basically small rafts that are so light you can fit them in your rucksack. I had to get one and so did my pal Iain Robertson.
When you are paddling them you have to strap your rucksack to the front - they look ridiculous but they are great fun! We cross Scotland by foot and Packraft from Mallaig to Spey Bay a few Easters ago.
Here are a couple of shots from our trip...

Above: Packrafts on our backs as we head up to the watershed - we are carrying enough food (and whisky) for a six night trip.
More of Packrafting early in 2013...
