First 4 days of Skye season 2018

Steve: I’ve just got home from my first 4 days of Skye season 2018. Thankfully the weather God’s were kind to us as Dave, Jim and I kicked off with perfect conditions for a traverse of Sgurr Dubh Mor, Alasdair and MhicCoinnich. We passed a group of friends walking a high-line over the great stone shoot in the process which was impressive and made for a good photo opportunity. We subsequently made use of a typically ‘Scottish’ forecast and climbed the west ridge of Sgurr nan Gillean which was icy and consequential on the long snowy approach. To polish off a succesful three days Dave and I completed a round of corrie Greadaidh which never fails to impress.
Having left Dave and Jim to make their journey home I met up with Helen and George who had just enjoyed a couple of days guiding with Dave. We scrambled up Sgurr Mhic Coinnich in wet and breezy conditions which felt somewhat more akin to Skye’s Cuillin ridge.
