Description

Set out as a party of 5 with me being the leader. Intention was to climb Ben Nevis from Glen Nevis.
Halfway up to the halfway lochan one of the team complained of sore hip. It became apparent that they would not make it to the summit.
I managed to catch up with another leader and passed 3 of the team to him and I took the injured party over to the North Face car park to make a day of it.

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.
