German Munro Baggers

I've received a comment from Frank regarding my post about Dutch Munro Baggers. Frank points out that he is part of a group of 10 Munro Baggers from Germany - so it looks as if the pleasures of 'bagging' the Scottish mountains is spreading through continental Europe!!!

Frank has a web site devoted to the 'bagging' activity of the German hillwalkers and it can be found at www.bgmb.de. The letters bgmb stands for Bloody German Munro Baggers - as Frank points out this is to show that Germans do have a sense of humour.

The site is excellent, with details of the hills climbed by different individuals and there is extensive information and photo galleries about hills climbed. All of it is in English and is well worth browsing.
