Exploring Ben Nevis
It was nice to be back on Ben Nevis today. I was out with Dan, Michelle and their sons; Ben (13 years old) and George (11 years old) on Ben Nevis. The weather was far better than the forecasts suggested, so we enjoyed our ascent of a dry Ledge Route, with quite a bit of it spent in the sunshine.
The cloud was lingering on the plateau as we made our way over to the summit. After a bite to eat, we continued our exploration of Ben Nevis, by descending into Coire Leis and heading out along the Allt A’Mhuilinn. A huge well did to the whole family, but in particular to Ben and George! It’s not everyday that 11 and 13 year olds tackle the UK’s highest mountain via its north face.
