Sgur Mor - Fanniachs

We went over to the Fanniachs today for a Boxing Day run. I haven't been back for a while as I have already bagged all the Munros, but I have realised the error of my list-ticking ways. The running was superb, helped by excellent weather. Snow cover was extremely patchy and varied between soft and bullet-hard depending on the aspect. A temperature inversion was forecast and it did seem warmer on the summit. Sitting around in a thermal in December just isn't normal behaviour for me.

The main face had plenty of snow in the gullies, but unfortunately I have no idea if any of the routes were in nick.
