Rained heavily several times on way up, thick mist came down and almost turned back at one point as I could'nt find the path to summit. Followed the voices of people I could hear but not see up ahead and by time I'd reached the top visibility was about 30 feet. Soaking wet and freezing cold spent a short time on the North peak before heading down, got lost on way down too and crossed rough grassy ground before making the Buttermilk Burn track. Lessons learned about going better equiped in future but my first Corbett in the bag.
