Ciste Dhubh 30 May 2014
A superb fine day to complete the north Glen Shiel Munros, a steep climb up the ridge of Am Bathach ( a Corbett) leading on to the ridge proper - after dropping 600 feet to a bealach, the at times narrow and fairly exposed ridge of Ciste Dhubh begins - leading to the small summit at 3.222ft, with superb views today to the Sisters and Brothers of Kintail, also south past the South Glen Shiel ridge towards The Quoich Hills - Ladhar Bheinn - Skye with the Cuillin in mist - and north past Beinn Fhada. And I only met 2 people in total! Munro no 131.....and my swollen ankle appeared no worse for the experience.....Glen Shiel now completed, apart from The Saddle and Sgurr na Sgine.....so 1 more day needed......
