The Cuillin mountains of Skye are justifiably admired as having the most alpine-like atmosphere of all the ranges of the British Isles, and perched elegantly above the sea they have an especial charm. The traverse of the main ridge is of course a highly prized expedition, but the flanks of the Cuillin contain a very large number of crags of excellent gabbro, offering long multi-pitch climbs throughout the grade range.
An excellent outing taking in the full ridge and all the peaks along the way. Gars Bheinn via the trad route via the scree to start and SNG to finish. At 18 hours a long day but the decision to load up with water and food and mnimise rack worked well.
