| Stob Ban's splendid North Ridge |
 |
| ....and then a lovely narrow grassy section |
 |
| .......and looking back along it with fine views of Ben Nevis |
 |
| ........and something a bit more scary, the excellent East Buttress, a grade 3 scramble |

| The East corrie, snow still in South Gully |
It felt even warmer today as the Highland Heatwave continues, just a tad hazy today but a nice breeze high up so very pleasant. I had a day on Stob Ban, going up via the North ridge which is a very fine way of gaining the summit and again it is a route that not many folk use. The North ridge looks a bit intimidating as you approach it but here is only a few rocky steps to negotiate so not really a scramble as such. I descended down the East ridge for a nice half days walk. Another fine day tomorrow is forecast with this big high pressure system sitting over us but it looks like it will be drifting off soon and back to 'normal' March weather for the weekend.
