Sgurr Alasdair

"To describe the ascent as a walk involves a fair amount of elasticity in translation. The Great Stone Chute represents a corner of purgatory set aside for hard line masochists" - Some wise walking book.

But that's where we went, and it wasn't half as bad as the book made out - it was actually quite fun. On the way, we stopped at Loch Lomond, The Falls Of Falloch, Glencoe, Fortwilliam and castle. Here's a picture of the 4 of us, at some random waterfall:

After adding another Murray (Alan) to our collection, we began our climb. The highest peak in the photo below is where we climbed to. It's called Sgurr Alasdair and is the highest peak in the Cuillins and on Skye. On the way up, we stopped at a Corrie, where there was loch, before continuing up the scree to the summit. Even after we were on the way down, I still stood in amazement and asked HOW we got up there!


But we did, Wah-hey....! More photos on Facebook, or at your request.

nice pics!
