First winter walk of the season. Great weather with a good covering of snow. Crampons not needed and only used ice axe on one section for a bit of balance/support. Superb views all round, particularly of Ben Alder hills. Cold wind at the summit but a large cairn provided enough shelter for a cup of tea.
