wont catch me anywhere near this one until a bright dry sunny day :)

That was my plan too skut007, but the return of winter put paid to my ideas. I couldn't complain though, as the weather on the day was superb :D

What an exciting two days you had PeteR, enjoyed your first day's account and the idea of getting back to camping after 20 years, and well what more can I say about An Teallach.....so glad it lived up to expectations. Perhaps it could be for me later this year :D :D :lol:

Cheers Bod. An Teallach more than lived up to epectations. Not only a great hill to look at and walk on, but also one with great views too :D If it's on your radar then I hope you have a day as good as mine, but hopefully without the snow. But then, perhaps you'll be up and over the scrambles :D

Tremendous Peter. Glad you managed to stop your slide or we would not be reading this methinks 8)

Some times the line between walking & mountaineering become a little too blurred for comfort :lol:

Your pictures are fab 8)
