Winter walking and more navigation practice today (due to the closure of the ski road!) with Gwilym and Mark, we started with a nice little walk from the car park towards Carn Ban Mor via a pathway - where Mark and myself practiced interpreting the contour lines on our map to match the surrounding area.
On the way up to Carn Ban Mor, we were greeted by some amazing views! The sun shining on the slopes looked amazing and were packed with snow, however we did not want to wander nearby as they looked avalanche prone and matched with the slope aspect on the avalanche forecast.
After reaching Carn Ban Mor, we worked our way towards Sgor Goaith, passing the Plateau nearby 1012. We then got a bit trigger happy with the cameras when the weather lifted, revealing the surround area - the camera didn't do it justice; it was much more beautiful to the eyes.
After our little camera shoot, we went to bag Sgoran Dubh Mor before descending down towards Meall Tionail and back onto the path towards the car park via a very long walk along a very long road (at least that's what it felt like).
My time in Scotland has so far been magnificent, and today was very enjoyable - it has been a big learning curve to discover what I need to work on in order to better myself for any future adventures. Hopefully the rest of the remaining week will be just as good and I will learn just as much.
