All Dry and Warm

Sunday, 31 May 2009

After a very windy morning, yesterday proved as good as possible on the Black Cuillin Ridge. Plenty of weary travellers out enjoying the high and exposed sections of the very unique Skye Ridge.


Plenty of traffic on the Inaccessible Pinnacle.


Dreams are finally fulfilled. Well done Catherine.


Even on a busy day it should be possible to find a slender ledge to ponder the view from the West Ridge of the Inaccessible Pinnacle. And thanks to some good solid stainless steel fittings the roped descent of the steep East side is more re-assuring, although still provoked some fairly agricultural language from one lady yesterday,


Dry, high and happy.


Cioch Buttress looks good in the afternoon light. This is certainly a better cliff after lunch and into the evening if you are looking for some sunshine.


Driving away from Glenbrittle in the clear evening light. The Black Cuillin in full sunshine are not as photogenic as an evening shot with shade and light. Day time shots tend to be a little bland, due to the greyness of the rock architecture.


Arriving home and the view of Ben Nevis from above Spean Bridge bodes well for the coming week.
