Mount Keen

After a long lay off I finally got back into the hills yesterday Wednesday 30th of August. Mount Keen was the target. The walk into the hill is fairly long and flat following a made path all the way. As you start to climb the path continues making this a very easy Munro to navigate. [img] [img]https...
