Aonach Eagach Traverse

Today we were back in Glencoe making a traverse of the Aonach Eagach Ridge (III). This is usually described as the best ridge walk on mainland Scotland and it didn't disappoint today. It's in great condition with well trodden path along it's length. The weather this morning was blue skies and light northerly winds. The cloud did increase this afternoon but not enough to spoil a great day out. Andrew & Heather coped well with the exposure and the tricky mixed ground and it was an ideal long day to give them a good test before Everest next month. Today I was working for Adventure Peaks.
