Ullapool weekend day 1 in the sun
Posted: Sun Jun 17, 2012 10:56 pm
A rainbow seemed to follow alongside for the last 5mins to the car park but as we pulled up the sun was shining with just the hilltops still in cloud. Not long started walking in when a walker came past saying it was too windy up there; he'd gone about half way before turning back. However the clouds cleared by the time we reached the summits although the wind was pretty fierce nearing the top of Conival - had to adopt the crouch-walk a few times!
Lunch break then crossed the ridge to Ben More Assynt. There were 2 tops with cairns, very windy on the left one (summit) and we took the brief detour to the second one just to cover all bases Route back was the same in reverse so Conival also became the third summit of the day
