ANNE and I
Well the day started off pretty nice . However the weather soon turned to gale force winds and a bit of hale stones thrown in for good measure by this time it had taken us over 3 hrs to get to 744 mtrs and we were not turning back so close to the summit so we trudged on .
The path is excellent all the way to the summit . On the boulder field you might lose it a bit but it should be able to pick it up again no problem .
We literally flew back down , due to the path being so excellent we were running part of it on the way down.
4hrs to get up 3 hrs to get back down. This includes a stop off going up and down at the bothy and a quick bite in the storm shelter just off the summit .
What a fantastic bothy , 2 levels and well kept . Apart from some people leaving their rubbish !!
Got to the car just as daylight was leaving us. Total 6hrs 52 mins
