Sgiath a' Chaise

Sgiath a' Chaise from Glen Ample on a dull, overcast and muggy morning. Parked in the lay by on the A84 at Ardchullarie More and followed the sign for Glen Ample.

Re: The happiest Munro in Scotland

Tim Cracking report, really fantastic photos. :clap: Great idea to take the chairlift up to the north ridge, I did this one in November 2021 and the ascent under the chairlift was a steep one. :( Unfortunately my view of the Buachaille from the ridge was not quite as spectacular as your one. https:/...

Re: Our friend Alteknacker

I never met Allan but like a lot of people here I always enjoyed reading his reports and any comments he would make on mine.
Such a tragic loss.
He will be missed.
My thoughts are with his family and friends.

Re: Deer Ked countermeasures

I was up at the Black Mount munros yesterday. First time I've really experienced keds. Again they seemed to be worse between 300 and 800 metres. No bites that I can find but they are very difficult to shake off. I've used skin so soft as a midge repellent for years but it doesn't seem to deter these...

Keith
Really enjoyed your post, fantastic.

I had a nasty tumour removed in 2017 and like yourself built up my fitness again gradually.

I agree it makes you question your mortality and alters your priorities.

Anyway, congratulations on your achievement.

Keep up the good work.

Regards.
