Ardnamurchan 07/10/09

Last Wednesday Graham and I headed over to Ardnamurchan's Ring crags. The crags are composed of excellent, rough gabbro and have an excellent outlook towards Rhum and Skye. The crags looked wet from the distance but as we arrived the sun and cold wind had dried off the rock and it was perfect conditions. We climbed at Meall An Fhir-Eoin Beag which has a good spread of graded. We started off with Graham leading up Yir (VS 4c), I then led up Up-Pompeii (E2 5b) and Star Wars (E3 6a) and we finished off on Return of the Jedi (E2 5c) which Graham led up. Plenty to still go for in this area and always a good option when it is raining inland. Great day!
