Martin had a great eye for a line, over the years along with others he hunted down and climbed some of the very best winter lines in Scotland.
Often long, physically demanding and intimidating, a large number of these climbs are located in remote and beautiful parts of the NW Highlands.
This is only a compilation of some of the best and by no means a definitive list.
