A call off on Saturday gave Linda the opportunity to call in her Simply Epic Adventure birthday gift voucher with Mark on Sunday.
The weather was set to be fair with sun mid-morning, but the wind was cold when we made our way up Am Bodach.
Linda having a low centre of gravity has good sense of balance and made the initial down climb look easy. We both enjoyed the mountaineering style journey to Meall Dearg - the official start of the Aonach Eagach ridge. Consistent exposure and beautiful views with varied scrambling; taking in everything from terraced ridges and knife-edged arêtes to towering chimneys . We made our way across the crazy pinnacles before the final pull up to to Stob Coire Leith.
We descended from the summit to the Clachaig road junction and thumbed a lift back to the start point.
I am the Linda with the "low centre of gravity" - it just means I have short legs. What a fab day - I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to walk and climb the ridges, arêtes, chimneys and crazy pinnacles. A big thanks to my ML...what a guy!
