An exciting evening celebrating wild places. Settle in to listen to John D Burns, adventurer, bothy-lover, ice-climber and successful writer.
The John Muir Trust North East Scotland Members’ Group invites you to an exciting evening celebrating wild places.
Meet John Muir Trust staff then settle in to listen to our special guest - adventurer, bothy-lover, ice-climber and author - John D Burns.
John will whisk us away to a remote Highland bothy, where a weary traveller finds shelter from the storm. In his rucksack he has coal for the fire, candles to ward off the darkness, and a little whisky to bring some cheer. The wanderer invites you into his world - setting the scene for why protecting wild places is more vital than ever.
19.00: doors open.
19.30: Talks by John Burns on Bothy Tales and John Muir Award Officer Steph McKenna on the joy of volunteering.

21.00: End.
Members and non-members welcome to find out about our latest work and learn how they can help and protect wild places.
