Glen Shiel Munros, 31st December

Apologies for adding this so late, I've been internetless in deepest Glen Garry over the New Year. 

Alice and I went for a shortish walk in Glen Shiel to see out 2010, on a lovely circular walk that took in two Munros - Carn Ghluasaid and Sgurr nan Conbhairean, and then followed the southern ridge off Drochaid an Tuill Easaich. I think the plod back along the main road to the car was probably the tiring bit! 

This was Alice's second day out on snow, and gave her a good spell of holding her walking axe to get used to the feel of things. We saw a few other people out, but I think they must've been thinking of that night's festivities as they were up and off quickly.
It was a beautiful day  - not monumentally so, but one of those days where you get regular glimpses through the cloud, to the sun, the landscape and a bit of blue sky.
