Short and snowy walk with Mum and Dad in May 2015.
Very boggy underfoot until we reached the snow line, but otherwise an easy walk.
- Snow melt cave
- Our friend the cosy hut
Lots of frozen steps already kicked into the snow ( a good foot deep) leading up to summit so they were nice and easy to follow!
Planned to do the munro behind also, Carn Sgulain, but wintry conditions and wind were a bit unexpected and weather was looking like it might close in at any second. Not being confident winter walkers we retraced out steps back down to the hut.
- A freezing summit
- Heading back down toward the bog
Back at the now seemingly very cosy hut, we enjoyed cheese, tomatoes and oatcakes out of the wind, was a lovely place to spend a while. Lots of interesting old grafitti on the walls too.
We were a bit reluctant to leave
