Today, Alan, Helen, John, Julia, Maria, Stuart and I tackled two Munros – Sgurr a’ Mhadaidh and Sgurr a’ Ghreadaidh. The weather started off OK but by the time we were bagging the 2nd Munro the mist had descended making the rock wet and slippery.
Great day – my first time on the Cuillin Ridge – and two more Munros in the bag.
