Description

Conditions: wet, almost no snow.
Group: Kate Worthington leading; Sarah and me.
Prepared for snow, we were fully kitted up. Heading up from Coire a Mhusgain.
Winds got pretty strong as we headed over the headwall, but windchill was a bigger problem than snow (of which, there was none!).
Another Munroe for Sarah and me.

Area : Ben Nevis & Aonach Mor (Fort William To Loch Leven)

This area covers the mountains between Fort William, Loch Leven (to the south) and Loch Treig (to the east). The area includes Ben Nevis and Carn Mor Dearg, The Mamores, The Aonachs and The Grey Corries. An impressive 20 Munros are split equally by Glen Nevis and the waters of Abhainn Rath. Relatively accessible from the A82, these mountains hold some classic walking and climbing routes such as The Ring of Steall in the Mamores and Point Five Gully on Ben Nevis. Includes all major peaks above 600m.
