Original post....

I started the leg burning climb up toward Am Briseadh at 650m. This was physically demanding to say the least and the lack of wind and humid atmosphere provided fine feeding conditions for the wee native biting female minge. I was sweating heavily and must have lost a stone in body fluid but put it back on with the weight of the midge cloak.
