Bidean & Bruach na Frithe









Today dawned bright and breezy with some lovely views across the Western Isles. We headed up The Spur (2) on Sgurr an Fheadain onto Bidein Druim Nan Ramh. The traverse of its triple peaks give one of the more formidable sections on the main ridge at grade 3 and with several good abseils. We then traversed An Casteal making the two famous big steps and onto Bruach na Frithe via some more grade 3 scrambling and a couple more abseils. A brilliant day giving some engaging mountaineering and route finding that left us all happily tired at the end of it.
