Thanks ancancha, weather made up for the whole of the poor Summer, superb for walking hardly any wind, dry and not too warm :D

Nice one - one of my favourite walks of last year :) . Even better camping on it.

There's also a bothy right up at the north end beyond the other Marilyn - can't believe that I'd not noticed it until Mountainstar mentioned it to me the other week. I think I'll be back before too long :) .
