[ad_1] Our Skye Munros team enjoyed another unexpectedly dry day on the Cuillin Ridge today. The forecasts were for rain, but fortunately that didn't arrive until we were down. We tackled the southern three Munros; Sgurr Nan Eag, Sgurr Dubh Mor and Sgurr Alasdair, before descending the Great Stone Chute, which is in reasonable (relatively) […]
[ad_1] The forecast for the morning wasn't brilliant, so our Skye Munros team decided to head uo Sgurr na Banachdich first of all, to give the expected rain a chance to clear before we tackled the In Pinn and Sgurr Mhic Choinnich. It turned out to not be necessary, as the day stayed dry throughout, […]
[ad_1] After a day off, I was back in Skye and along with Jamie, running the third of our Cuillins Munro Courses on Skye. The beauty of these courses is that we can juggle the days around to fit with the weather and with today looking the windiest for the next few days, we decided […]
[ad_1] Yesterday, Jon and I made the most of his final day by tackling the 3 northern Munros on the main Cuillin Ridge; Sgurr nan Gillean, Am Basteir and Bruach na Frithe. The weather was marginally better than the day before, but it was still pretty wet for much of the day! We tackled Sgurr […]
[ad_1] Today was wet, very wet! It's been a while since I've experienced such wet conditions on Skye and fortunately, it looks like it won't be quite so wet in the foreseeable future! I was back out with Ed and Jon and we braved the rain and tackled the southern three Munros on the main […]
[ad_1] Jon, Ed and I entered the clouds at the lip of Coire Lagan and didn't drop back out of it until quite a way down Coir' an Eich, but fortunately, it mostly stayed dry for much of the day. From Coire Lagan, we made the steep pull up to Bealach Lagan, before ascending Sgurr […]
[ad_1] I was back out with Carole, who I had been out with last year, exploring some lesser nooks and crannies on An Teallach and Liatach. Today's adventure was no different, as Carole is on a mission to reach the summits of the Munros, Tops, deleted Tops, SIMs (hill over 600m with a drop of […]
[ad_1] Despite a mixed forecast for the day, Neil, Ben, Caroline and myself enjoyed a dry ascent of the In Pinn on the Cuillin Ridge on Skye. With it being a bank holiday, and with the weather having been pretty wet yesterday, we were expecting a fair few teams today, so were very pleasantly surprised […]
[ad_1] Over the past three days, I've been out with Blair, bagging some of the classic scrambles in Lochaber. On Thursday, we went for Curved Ridge, which was largely dry, although once in the clouds, things were a bit damp underfoot. We made our way round onto Crowberry Tower, which tends to be much greasier […]
[ad_1] Two more days, six more Munros bagged. Yesterday, with tired legs and various niggles, we were a slightly denuded team. A fresh dusting of snow blanketed much of the Cuillins first thing in the morning, but with it being another clear day, much of it melted fairly quickly. We made ascents of Sgurr Nan […]
