Heading from the little parking area beside the road the climbers path started to get steeper all the time.Crossing the boulder field was fun too before what was a really steep bit of land following a fence next to some forestry.
After following the fence I made a as direct course for high ground as I could.Deep bracken made this hard going hiding any boulders and with every bit i brushed by seemed to unleash the next 30 or so midges to attack me.I didn't want to hang around here.
I reached the path on higher ground at a stile and continued up again steeply before the final ascent revealed itself.Again I was so impressed this mountain delivers everything.The views were vast in all directions.
After the summit it was back in the direction I came but at the stile continued along the ridge following a path.
If I ever come to this area again Creag Dhubh is a mountain I could easily do again.
