Scotland 2

Yeap, I went up again before Christmas. Again with Heather (and Milly). This time we went climbing in Corrie an T-Sneachda, cross country skiing in Glenmore and had 2 nights in the Ling hut, up in Torridan. Conditions this winter are unbelieveable. Theres been so much snow early on. Driving down the Torridan road was 'interesting', to say the least. I had a big day out on Ben Eighe, which included wading through knee deep powder snow on the approach and battling 60mph winds on the summit ridge in fading light. It was quite an experience, but I was pleased I could handle it well. Just need to get some new ski goggles - an essential item of winter mountaineering equipment!
