Went up from Kinghouse, but somehow I missed the path so the whole ascent was more or less pathless. Anyway it was a phenomenal break before lockdown...

Video memory:


The Video is quite long, including more or less the whole pathless approach, so probably rather something for a "boring" evening ;-)

Very enjoyable! What a day/evening you had weather wise. Have always wanted to do an overnight camp up there - we climbed it from Altnafeidh one Feb , under snow - such a tremendous viewpoint. Your Tarp looked a bit too chilly for me though, even in summer :wink:

Hi Anne thanks. The weather was cloudy, windy and around freezing temperatures. Said this my sleeping system I took is good to -8 degrees celsius so the night was fine :-).
