WELCOME BACK ALPINE WEATHER, I'VE MISSED YOU!

East face Stob Ban
Mick on the ridge
Long fracture lines
This one will go soon!


And there's more!
The beautiful north ridge of Stob Ban, Ben Nevis in the background
Mick keen for Munro number two in the late afternoon
Beautiful early evening descent off Mullach Nan Coirean

 Today it was glorious weather. Sunny spells became widespread by afternoon. Mick and I headed up to Stob Ban, unfortunately Mike wasn't feeling too good today. We reached Stob Ban early afternoon and the good weather and fab views were enough for Mick to be persuaded for another Munro summit of Mullach Nan Coirean. Wesavoured the glorious views and sunshine until dusk, reaching Mullach's summit after 5pm. The snow was mostly soft, harder and icy above 900m. Some amazing cornices about and some ready to topple soon! A wonderful day, welcome back sunny skies. More sun and fun tomorrow.
