Today's challenge was finding the summit of this munro in a complete white out. We had to rely entirely on our compass and map to locate the summit cairn - we couldn't see for more than about 5 metres. I was very happy to find it, and head back down into better visibility. A super day with loads of deer and wildlife on the lower slopes. Tomorrow we have another day of Winter Skills practice with a guide, so we'll soon see what that brings!
Oh my, the weather really has closed in! I remember climbing to the top of Great Gable and the thick foggy cloud descended. I sat down by a rock on the summit to eat my sandwich and didn't realise I was about 3 feet away from a sheep until it baa'ed!
Oh goodness you are two intrepid adventures! I think it would be quite scary up there with visibility down to 5 metres. I am betting you are taking it in your stride & loving it! Your dad will be proud of you….mountain rescue next! Munro #70 wow!
