Descending Sgurr Eilde Mor by jamibann

Descending Sgurr Eilde Mor

Well, yesterday turned out to be a good walking day. Cool but pleasant. We walked from Kinlochleven and climbed 2 Munros - Binnein Beag and Sgurr Eilde Mor. This is taken from the summit ridge of Sgurr Eilde Mor just as we were about drop over the 'nose' and start the steep descent. You can see our targeted path on the side of the hill in front.

A good day, finished off with a lovely meal at the Lochleven Seafood Cafe on the way back to our little pod. We didn't have a peaceful evening though, as the smoke detector in our pod kept bleeping and no-one could fix it! So, we had to pack up and move into another pod - fortunately one was available. We didn't fancy spending the night with a bleeping smoke detector.

Rainy today, so not sure of our plan ...
Looks quite a descent down to that path.. Well done.. Lovely view.

As I am not a fan of heights, this view put the hair on the back of my neck up a bit. Beautiful scenery though! ;)

This looks like a gorgeous hike -- the beeping at night would have driven me crazy as well!

The trip down looks steep. I like how you've given us that perspective in this photo.

Great clarity here…..good to see how it looks going down! So glad you moved, carbon monoxide is so dangerous. Thank goodness for alarms!

Beautiful,... would love to hike there.

Quite the descent but I'm sure there were amazing views all the way down. I'm curious to see what a "pod" looks like! At first I thought it might be a tent, but I haven't heard of tents with smoke detectors. Beautiful shot.
