Last minute decision after hectic time at work and university, although the equipment had been waiting ready for this moment for several weeks... 2 hours drive to Glencoe, camping overnight in my cosy shelter, warm meal, cup of tea... Time to bed to catch few hours slee before early start...
Started about 5:30... Beautifull day, nice cool weather, good visibility... Snow started above 400-450 m, very low for March..
Stable snow allowed me to enyoy Stob Corie nan Lochan, my favourite Bidean... Decided to go along the ridge and say hallow also to Stob Corie Sgreamhach, but worse and worse visibility force me to esacape just after my third munro...
Lost Valley after difficult on my own escape down took me safely back to the car park, where Three Sister were waiting for me as always...
Love that route...
