Just making sure that we have a back up. We all managed The Ring of Steall fine except that bloody descent 😂 and though it's a different beast, feel confident that most of us will complete the full ridge.
Cheers again.
I intend doing the South Glen Sheil ridge about then too. I intend to wildcamp up when I get too weary to go on. Interestingly I found the descent off the Ring of Steall a bit of a grind too. As was the hike down off Glas Bheinn Mhor. Maybe carrying the overnight gear will reinforce the necessity of a halt we will see !
Part of my Everest base camp workup 😊
