A very good visibility day, so good photos :)
We wanted to cycle as far up the valley as we could go , as we had bagged the other Munroe a few years earlier :D
We managed to go nearly to the end of the forested area before dumping the bikes, but because it was so dry we could have gone a lot further :roll:
