Thanks for an enjoyable report, which makes me very glad that I was lucky enough to do almost all the Cuillin Munros cloud free during a wonderful couple of weeks 20+ years ago. Still, the reports on here like your do give me a hankering to return, somewhat slower, somewhat fatter, and definitely somewhat more wimpy!
Lucky you to have done these in cloud free conditions!
Thanks Petr, it was brilliant!
Thanks Polly, you are very kind

Apart from being slightly battered (that’s my inelegant knees-and-elbows climbing technique for you
), the legs were fine. I can now wear shorts again
Thanks dooterbang

. You'll be glad to get all the ridge done and not leave it all till last, like I'm almost doing
Looked very dramatic with all that wetness, ropes, and clag. Superb effort to then go do the Forcan Ridge. I loved the FR, so much so drove up 2 weeks after climbing it to do it all again
Wise choice to take a reading from the summit of Sgritheall. Brought back memories of my mate and I walking from the summit in the clag to be lost five minutes later!! Ended up walking back to the summit and took a reading, lesson learned
I though you would've incorporated the 2 corbetts with Sgritheall
Brilliant report of a wonderful weeks walking.
I’m still glad I didn’t leave them till last: to have missed out on all that fun for longer would have been a shame. Forcan Ridge (and Skye) will have to wait for substantially more than two weeks, but return I will!
Obviously I haven’t got the corbetts as firmly on my radar as the munros. Give it a few more years….
