I was hoping to join you on this walk but I had planned to do 3 Munros the day before and wasn't sure what would be left in the tank.

Seeing the report, I wish I had come along - looked like a great day.

These are wonderful photos - particularly love the first one of sun rise over Loch Cluanie. I did the ridge in two goes so don't know how it would have felt to do 7 in one sitting! :clap: It's good you got clear views from all the tops. :D

Charlie will no doubt do this in half the time. :lol: :lol:
I met you and Charlie briefly on Beinn Dearg a couple of weeks ago - That was a lovely day out on the hills too!

Thanks Peter. Fortunately we made it down in daylight, unlike your own adventure coming off the ridge :shock: :lol:
