Day 1 of the Cuillin Ridge with Ken and Steve from West Coast Mountain guides.

Very wet conditions so the guides decided on tackling these two Munros on the first day as it's one of the shortest days of the four they do.

We walked up through Coire a' Ghreadaidh to An Dorus (The Door) then scrambled up some rocks onto Sgurr a Ghreadaidh. This was the hardest one of the two with some moves that were quite tricky for me.
