Well I had my first attempt at bagging a Corbin today, namely Beinn Carbh at argour ,I set off at 8.30 and decided if I did not achieve my goal by 2.30 I would turn around .I was wanting to find out my limits and levels of fitness. I was solo and I carry an Acr plb ,I left my route with my son and off I went ,I got too 902 meters before I turned back ,my reasons for turning back were , I was feeling it physically ,my ,,64 year old legs were running out of juice , and the main one was that I did not want to descend in the dark ,I do have a head torch
I learned a lot from the ascent ,such as don't rely on your phone as your main navigation device
On the positive side ,I got back down safely and thoroughly enjoyed it
