Sometimes when you`ve wanted to go to an area for a long time and especially when you`ve travelled a long way you feel very determined to attempt for a hill, even when it perhaps doesn`t look very promising.
So today was a day of fairly pointless fighting up to around the 500metre contour on Ben More Coigach before concluding there was in the 20metre visablity, heavy rain and wind that was displacing the smallest member of our party (me) little merit in continuing. Went to Elphin music festival instead.
Area :
Coigach to Cape Wrath
This area is situated on the north-western tip of Scotland and contains 4 Munros (from biggest to smallest); Ben More Assynt (998m), Conival (987m), Ben Klibreck (962m) and Ben Hope (927m). Also included in the mountains list are all of the peaks above 700m. The southern boundary is the road which joins Ullapool to Lairg and then to the A9.
