Climbed Clachnaben this morning on what turned out to be an amazing day....gorgeous weather, and gorgeous views....

Cant beleive what a beautiful part of the world I live in....the climb was pretty straight forward and it was very busy....so did not have the hill to myself.

Here are some pics from the day....enjoy :D

Thanks for the memories Yasmeen, this was a local regular for me before I moved to Canada. It's hard to believe that there isn't at least a little snow up there :shock:
