All well and good but it doesn't factor in the following:
1. How long its taken you to drive to Scotland.
2. When you are going to get a long weekend off again.
3. Whether the route is on your ticklist and it has to be done, no alternative.
4. Whether you have a blog to update.

only kidding, of course.

I like how the article refers to "The mountainous areas of England and Scotland" ignoring Wales, but then tells people to remember to check the "cwm Idwal winter climbing information project".

There is not much information in there telling us how to judge... more of a do list when you are climbing!!!
