Scrambling in the Cairngorms

Kelly and her band of merry co-workers were looking for an away day with a difference.  Well on Friday they got it; scrambling, munro bagging and a good laugh in between.

The team were looking for a scrambling taster and an opportunity to take in the mountain environment so we decided to aim for the Fiacaill Ridge and Ben Macdui.  A good friend of mine; Stu was out helping today making the other half of the 'Dynamic Duo' complete.

Time being against us as some required longer beauty sleep than others we opted to walk to the Cairngorm summit and back to the cars.

 
Moving through the wet rock on the 'Twin Ribs'.


Halfway across the Fiacaill ridge!



Cheese!

The weather let us down as we began our scrambling but soon cleared up by the end of it and allowed us to dry off and enjoy the views.

Looking south toward Ben Mheadoin.

Stu went a little 'funny' during the course of the day!
