Scott’s report

The weather today was wild (beautiful in comparison to yesterday!), however we had the odd glimpse of sunshine and some fine views at times from the Northern end of the ridge.  Myself and Katherine Mcquitty went up Sgurr nan Gillean via the “tourist route” before descending the west ridge and onto Am Basteir.  The wet rock and strong winds made the whole experience slightly more challengeing but enjoyable none the less.  Katherine now has only 4 munros left to do – all in the Cullin!  Matt and Ian were close behind us and they continued onto Bruach na Frithe.

Further along the ridge Mike was on Mhadaidh and Ghreadaidh with Redge, Rich and Neil While Gillian and Anne had a great day out on the Spur, Sgur an Fheadain.
