Walk Description
Just photos and walk statistics at moment.
One of my best days ever - The Aonach Eagach Ridge, cannot remember easily a better day with as much sustained climbing and inescapable opportunities for extreme exposure.
Hiking days of course. Pleased I edited that in before anybody noticed.😂
Yet again I needed a rest day failing to manage again two consecutive Munro days.
If I had done more research before the walk I probably would not have attempted it solo.
Having now done it I guess I can class myself as an experienced scrambler.
One of the quotes from my delayed research:- "...there’s really just two convenient ways off: the beginning and the end.”
Although I met many people on the ridge, perversely I was the only one doing it West to East, I simply chose to do the long walk up the A82 at the beginning of the walk rather than at the end.
It did however result in an excellent climb at the end of the route up the west side of the final peak of Am Bodach.
