In reply to Removed User:
Aye its a fair trek, but worth it I recon if conditions are likely to be clear - finishing in the Dark with a long trudge back to the car would seem to be on par with the last few trips out too
Cheers for the advice though!
With the cold temps I do still have a vauge hope that some of the deeper gullies (Penguin etc) or higher ice lines on Beinn Dearg might be holding enough to climb on - only one way to find out I suppose!
Driving up to Ullapool tomorrow (sounds like half of UKC will be too!) so hopefully it'll be light enough to see the surrounding hills as I pass.
Cheers All
