A cold and clear day here with sunny intervals. Trail breaking remains hard work. Wind exposed terrain such as ridges are scoured but its often crusty at higher levels, crampons are required.

Raised footprints a sign of strong winds and snow erosion.

View along to Sgurr nan Fhir Duibhe.

Plenty signs of strong winds!
