Patience pays off for the Pinn. 28 April
Mike’s report.
A privelige to guide local physio Eve Bolton & hubby Paul today on their 6th wedding anniversary. Also along was best man Matt, a Cuillin virgin who thoroughly enjoyed his baptism of fire.
Local understanding was easy with a wet start and we agreed on a relaxed start to let the damp weather move through. The result was a midday set-off resulting in a dry day with ever improving views and not a sole to be seen! My guess is that many took the cloud as a welcome excuse to have a rest after such an excellent period of weather.
We climbed Mhic Choinnich, An Stac Direct then moved straight onto the Pinn for wedding cake & Talisker.
Malt whiskey appreciation continued when we got back to the Sligachan too.
Slainte, Mike

On An Stac Direct; possibly the best part of the whole Cuillin Ridge in my opinion.
Matt calms the nerves with Talisker
