Coming back to my hiking adventures in March before the lockdown. It was a cold and windy day and my friend and I decided to attempt to go up Glen Lyon munros the highest mountains in Scotland.
The visibility was not very great, we needed to use a lot of skills to tryong to navigate in white out conditions which can be so disorientating as you don't know where ground is or sky or walking down the cornice snow overhang. It is quite scary I must admit.
The two summits we managed to reach were very rewarding.
The goggles were very helpful with unforgiving winds and chill.
The avalanche risk on east facing slopes forced us to take a different route.
It so good to see something again not just being in a white milk room where you don't know where anything is.
As frightening as walking in these conditions may be I must admit I love it and I'm addicted to it as I keep coming back.
Thank you for reading.
