Taxus


Today, I drove down to Bridge of Orchy and walked up to the base of Taxus(III) on Beinn an Dothaidh. I soloed up the route and ended up on the summit in a whiteout. From here I navigated SW and ended up below Creag Coire an Dothaidh below all the route. I then went up to the col and went upto Beinn Dorain (1076). I then went back to the col, back up to Beinn an Dothaidh (1004) and then onto spot height 993 where I litrally bumped into a group of 6. Visibility was down to about 30-40m. From here I dropped down SE and then N into Coire Daingean and back out to the car. Taxus was in good condition, getting a bit thin on the icicle variation but do-able. Shame I couldnt see much more than cloud!
