Scotland – Glen Shiel Easter: Went round to Glen Garry to get Spidean Mialach. We had hoped to get a second Munro but sacked it due to very strong winds & blizzard conditions. Beinn Fhada – lots of deep snow. Carn Ghluasaid, Sgurr nan Conbhairean, Sail Chaorainn. Interesting cornices. Western 4 Munros of South Glen Shiel » read more »

After a fustrating day failing to bag Meal Glas due to snow which was far too deep, we were rewarded on the second day with perfect winter weather day to go and bag Creise.
