So finally after many things conspired to stop me getting this done, weather, covid its done 281 and just the one left.
The Stone chute is brutal, the lower section easier on the way down. The gully section at the top is bad both ways. Very hot day so many stops, stunning views from the summit and a swim in the lochan added to our time considerably. Colin, Kelly and I. :clap:
