Liathach Traverse

Having decided to embrace summer fully, Jake, Mandy and I headed to Torridon at early o'clock for a traverse of Liathach.

A brutal pull up from the road to the first summit was rewarded with a bit of easy scrambling and a sandwich. It was a little sad to see 2 ptarmigan still in winter plumage trying to hide against a grey rock.

We stuck to the ridge to keep the interest going but unfortunately, the mist did not lift and we did not get to see the potentially stunning views. As always, as we got down to the glen, the mist cleared as we looked back up to the ridge (last picture)
