Showers && sunshine on Sgurr na Banachdich and the In Pinn

The mixed weather in the Highlands continue, but with the promise of the clouds clearing and weather improving at around midday, Michelle, Katie and myself reached the summits of Sgurr na Banachdich and the In Pinn on the Isle of Skye today.

Our damp and blustery ascent of Sgurr na Banachdich, the first Skye Munro for both Michelle and Katie, was as much to reach the summit as it was to delay our ascent of the In Pinn by a couple of hours! This worked out well, as the skies started to clear and winds eased as we were making our way up the north western flanks of Sgurr Dearg. As we made our way to the foot of the In Pinn, we were greeted with sunshine and blue skies, which whilst didn't last for long, gave us an enjoyable ascent of the In Pinn and brilliant views to both ends of the Cuillin Ridge.

A huge well done to both Michelle and Katie for sticking with it today, and for tackling the most technical of all the Munros!
