SKYE AND STUFF,    MAY 2012

SKYE  MAY  2012

 

 

Maybe there were 22 of us in Sligachan bunkhouse. Maybe not.

It depended on who had come and gone, and who was out very early or very late attempting to cross that there ridge, on the various 3 nights. 

 

 

Some of us had begun the day before in Glen Shiel, either with Munro-maximisation along the South Glenshiel Ridge,  or following the north ridge of Aonach Air Chirith to take in a very pleasant scramble.

 

 

 

 

There are things on Skye besides the Main Ridge, of course, and these included the Red Cuillin (with its fair share of screes as well as views) 

 

 

Then there was a scramble in Glen Talisker at Preshal Mor, which was (almost) too steep to take pictures on.

 

 

 

 

 

Mike grew an Afro from the volcanic rock.

 

As always, plenty of wow factor and lots of variety. Wot a nice weekend !
