Thoroughly enjoyed reading your account of your time in Skye. Brill report with really nice pictures. Hoping to get up there next year myself for a go at Bla Bheinn. Look forward to reading your account of your return trip.
Cheers

The Cuillin Ridge is one trip I never did get around to when I lived in the UK. Your write-up reminded me of it and just might inspire me to come over and get it done before it's too late.
Great job on the write up and the trip. Good photos too.
Superb stuff. I've done most of the ridge in most conditions, but never been in the right place at the right time with the right mates to attempt the whole thing in one go. Hopefully my chance will come one day if I stay fit.
Just go for it John. We never really expected good weather and look what we got. You're correct to mentuion the fitness as it's entirely different to anything else I've done in the UK.
Cracking read mate and glad I was there. It felt like a life-changing experience at the time and the video still gives me goose bumps. Great craik with great people, thanks for the reminder. Can't wait to get out and do some more. Now where's Rich's number... Stu
I was there a week before you in totally mingin shitty weather, only managed Sgurr Mhic. We aimed at Alasdair but with the tip of your nose hardly visible we took a wrong chute instead of Great Stone Chute... We must have stayed in the same bothies. Will post a TR someday too.
All in all great report and great trip, mate.
Ahh and you made the George W. mistake. Your right the barman was a bloke but he was Slovak not Slovenian :)
