In reply to MrRiley:
Really good read there and glad you had a good trip to my favourite climbing destination on the planet. It might not be the biggest or most technical set of walls, but there's something utterly magical about walking across the fairy ring of the collapsed caldera on the far edge of the west past the abandoned village and climbing those crags of perfect rough gabbro with amazing views out to over a dozen Hebridean islands.
And the sun 'always' seems to shine there - even when the mainland mountains are wet and grey. Just don't tell anyone else though.
Only shame is that Helen, her Sonachan Hotel and the amazing seafood platters are no more for an apre-climb blow out.
