WINTER JUST AROUND THE CORNER




The first 'taste' of winter on Ben Nevis today with 60mph winds on the tops, hail, sleet and snow above 1000m. A real shock to the system for some folk and of course there were the usual 'light wieght approach' folk trudging up the hill in all kinds of attire. Of particular note was a guy with trainers and a pair of Lidl shopping bags as waterproof membranes! Quite a few folk turning back today.
