I realise I'll have to do it one day if I want to get all the Munros but I feel that day is way off in the future. You don't look too scared in the photos, though! Did it feel OK enough even though I am assuming the ground was quite damp?
Hiya,
You do not have to do the ridge to get the two munros, you can climb them both seperate and that will save you doing the ridge if it's not your thing, it felt ok initially but I have done it and have at this moment in time no feeling of great rush to get back
it's not for the faint hearted thats for sure however as your experience grows you may find in the future it's something you might want to tackle, if so make sure it is with if possible somebody that has traversed it before, read over my final summaries and take it in and let it stick because honestly I thought I was prepared..... you need to be on it to see how your gonna be. Keep in touch though and let me know your plans
