TIM McGIRK'S assertion in 'Hell and hunger, all on home video' (27 March) that Low's Gully on Mt Kinabalu was named after a British officer might give the impression that Low was an Army officer. Sir Hugh Low was actually an eminent colonial administrator who, besides his other achievements, made the first known ascent of Kinabalu in March 1851.
