After a fun Christmas day at Contin and a late cycle back home after a day of excesses it was difficult to get up early on Boxing day, but with work the following I was (mildly) determined to get out and head up a hill.
 |
The road to redemption!? |
I settled on the Monadhliath as the weather looked better in this area and surprised myself by getting to Garva Bridge by about 9am!

Looking back down the broad ridge |
 |
The top comes into view |
The walk up Geal Charn was very pleasant, with a dusting of fresh snow, clouds blowing in and out and not another soul on the hill today - bliss.
 |
Mince pie time |
Pretty cold at the summit and I sheltered on top for what felt like awhile taking in the views and eating mince pies. But I couldn't have been too long because I was back at the van in less than 5 hours.

Playing with the shadows |

Bye for now beautiful mountain |
A nice easy day blowing away the cobwebs.
