Hi!

I would like to see the highest mountain in Scotland. I've never been there and I'm curious how it looks like in winter but I have apropriate equipment for winter climbing and would be better climb in company :) I'll be travel from Skye. And in Cairngorms I'm planning Loch Eanaich and Ben Macdui. If there is anyone willing to those trips please let me know :)

Hi Anna

I am looking to walk up Ben Macdui this year and would also quite happily do Ben Nevis again, as the last time I reached the top the view was blocked by clouds. I don't have winter or climbing gear though so it would have to be in the Spring or Summer via the tourist walking routes.
