Just completed Ben Nevis after waiting 3 days for winds to abeit. I enjoyed the walk but lost visibility at 1200 metres. Just where the cairns begin. However we reached the sumit before the weather began to deteriate and once back down to 1200 meters the visibility returned giving some fanatastic views :D
