The Munro at the end of the Ridge by jamibann

The Munro at the end of the Ridge

This was the top of our second Munro on Friday, Stob Poite Coire Ardair. Not much of a cairn on this particular Munro! As you can see, the sun is trying hard to shine for us, and it did eventually make it.

I do prefer clear days when you can see for miles and miles. However, poor visibility does add a certain mystery to the walk and makes you appreciate the good visibility days!
So adventurous

I hope you had a compass with you, I would be totally lost up there

Again, an impressive hike. With little visibility I'd be uncomfortable up there :-)

It looks like the edge of the world.

That looks so bleak.

With such visibility, you can't see the hardships of hiking. Very atmosptheric capture.

No hat!! First thing I noticed, John must have got hot climbing to the top I imagine! You can certainly get a feeling if great height hereā€¦.on the edge of nowhere!

It looks pretty cold out there. An atmospheric capture, glad the sun came out for you
March 6th, 2023  
On top of the world!
March 6th, 2023  
looks like temperature wise it wasn't too bad looking at what he is wearing. You are brave walkers

This looks very isolated.
March 7th, 2023  
Wow, very mystical!

@happypat You're right. We tend to strip off for the climb and put warm clothes back on at the top. I got my photo before he put on his warm clothes! However, with little wind, it really wasn't that cold - for March!

@busylady It really wasn't too cold, Judith. A slight warmth from the sun, and no wind makes all the difference. That, and a climb to the top fairly warms you up! You soon get cold when you stop though, and jackets and hats were donned soon after this image was taken.

@lesip You're right Lesley - it was very mild for a winter's day. Not always the case in Scotland, as you might imagine!
March 7th, 2023  
A lovely Misty capture
March 7th, 2023  
Very atmospheric, in many senses. Fav
