With heaps of snow and a good forecast for Saturday it seemed an ideal opportunity to head to Glencoe and so avoid the hordes who would be trooping into the Corries. I headed in with Steve for a great easy mountaineering day on Sron na Lairig, a three star II. The walk-in, described in the guide as long, was only an hour to the bottom of the route.
We soloed up mixed ground and short gullies to the second steepening and then moved together for the rest of the rocky crest. The narrow top section of the ridge was superb with large drops on both sides and, with the bright blue sky and soft snow, the route felt almost Alpine.
