    Awesome day Peter. I love days like these with the skylarks and the stillness. It certainly looked different to your winter jaunt up. That was probably cracking as well. Good going mate. Another tap of the trig. Mark

      @MUNROSnCORBETTS  3 года назад

      Hey Mark cheers mate :) Aye it was very different saw the best ever november sunrise on the winter one but it was bloody baltic at that summit though ha ha! Yeah the silent stillness seems like another planet well worth the midge attck on the way down worst i have ever had!! But apart from that it's a great hill quite a famous one for religious stuff like the Beltane Ritual.

    Duck knows the way Billy took me up Peter... through rough stuff over a 8ft fence and up the steepest way possible lol.
    Never seen a path, more interesting he said. Pitch black when we finished I had to wait for him he wanted another top done.

    Spectacular inversions views! I did this hill 2 weeks ago and there was nothing but low cloud from about the switchback in the path up to the top. The worst part is it looked like it had all cleared by the time I was at the bottom. I guess I’ll just need to do it again one day.
