Description

Two day Cuillin Ridge traverse. Weather excellent on the first day, bivvyed on Sgurr Na Banadich. Lost time on Sgurr a Mhadaidh the next day as the weather was grim. Very bad vis and wet rock. Managed to finish by bypassing Biden and Am Basteir. Summited Sgurr Nan Gillean at 7pm in better weather.

Area : Isle of Skye
