Yeah the midges certainly aren't 8ft tall but they still completely distract you from any form of vertical movement in the lowlands...(or sometimes even up high for that matter)so saying, there's a damn good reason it's so green, in fact I'd still be living in the central highlands if it wasn't for that single factor...rain, rain, rain...it drives me insane.
