Home sweet home! Sunshine and a dusting of snow on Goatfell today. It was winking at me from the ferry as I arrived back this morning, so after a quick cup of tea, I headed back out the door with Wally. Bit of a contrast to the steamy humidity of Tanzania. In fact, it was flipping baltic on the top. Microspikes/crampons were useful today, especially on the middle mountain where the path is caked in hard water ice.
A quick shot of Cumbrae and Arran this morning.

It wasn't fast or pretty, but I just ran up to the Goatfell deer fence, which is milestone and a big confidence boost. π₯³
A stunner of a day to climb Goatfell with Wally and Nuis. Lots of folk had the same brilliant idea, so it was a sociable afternoon π. Everyone having a great time and enjoying hillwalking in the Easter sunshine on Arran.
Random things I notice on my walks. Pretty sure Goatfell has a message for me.
Happy winter solstice to all who celebrate it. Wishing light and laughter and hopefully better times for all as the earth continues to spin into another year. π
I took this photo a few days ago from the summit of Goatfell.
