Lochnagar
After a mega-thaw on the Saturday, Will and I battled our way through rain and wind on the Lochnagar approach on Sunday morning. Just as we reached the corrie the clouds cleared to reveal a stunning alpine day. We tried our luck on Black Sprout Buttress but it was still too warm so Will abb'd off and we switched to a nice romp up The Black Sprout. A day of bizarre and changeable weather, you never know what Scotland will bring!
