Ben Chabhair

I couldn't make the club walk on Saturday, and was keen to get out on Sunday. The weather forecast looked good so I decided to do Ben Chabhair, which hurricane Katia had made impossible the previous weekend. Norman, Mike and Grant, a friend from Glasgow, came with me. It was a steep start from the farm up to the waterfall, and in the heat Grant found this hard going and turned back. It was a lot warmer than forecast, and it never did rain. It was windy on the summit, where we fed the tame ravens with bits of our ' pieces'. We decided to follow the ridge all the way back which was hard going and tiring. But it made a far more interesting route. Another excellent day on the hills.
