Over the weekend I was guiding on another 3 peaks Challenge event along with Willie & Andy for Achieve Mountains. Our group of 24 all did well and most did a great time of less than 24 hours. We were once again blessed with sunny and dry weather all the way through. Scafell Pike in the dark was lovely, as still and very clear night. The group had an amazing culinary team at the bottom of each hill, cooking up all kinds of wonderful grub, including coq au vin with 4 bottles of wine at 1am in the morning!
This week looks like a cracker with very warm temperatures and bags of sunshine. I think I will definitely put the winter gear back in the cupboard now! Good timing for this heatwave, I am out guiding on The Ring of Steall tomorrow and the rest of the week and weekend some long mountain days with plenty of great ridge walking in Lochaber and Glencoe. The high temperatures will quickly strip the remaining snow on the ridges and buttresses I would guess. Sunscreen, shorts and shades here we come. Photos from the weekend coming soon.
