The cloud starts to lift! |
Carn Dearg Buttress & looking down to Loch Eil |
At last the cloud lifts again and the north face in all it's glory |
The sun peeps over the summit of Ben Nevis-days are getting longer! |
Back down and the sun in my face |
One of those rare days this winter, some lovely sunny skies and hardly a breeze today. I took the opportunity of being in the sun and getting some photos so I avoided the crowds on the north face of Ben Nevis and headed up onto Carn Mor Dearg. There was fresh powder snow to 400m but someone had already broken trail so the going was easy. The cloud soon disappeared and the sun came out. Out to the west were beautiful cloud formations which rolled in onto Ben Nevis so in the cloud for an hour or so but by early afternoon it cleared again. It was so nice on the descent to feel the sun on my face whilst strolling back down the hill at 3pm. I'd imagine it was pretty busy on The Ben today, the top carpark was full once again with mini buses and cars.
