Ben Nevis is the Highest Mountain in Scotland and the UK. Carn Mor Dearg means 'great red peak' and is the 9th Highest in Scotland.
I took the tourist route up Ben Nevis and it was pretty busy. I went up quite quickly to avoid the tourists only taking about 2.5 hrs. It was pretty much an escalator.
At the top it was the usual complete fog, visibility only a few metres. Freezing as well, there was still snow up here.
I was gonna go along a ridge to Carn Mor Dearg but because it was so foggy it took ages to find the thing.
There was supposed to be a route down from it but couldn't find that either.
Eventually i emerged from the cloud layer. It's always a relief to lose the uncertain feeling that i might get lost and die of hypothermia and starvation.
Then i met this sheep. They warn you about feeding meat to sheep cos people feed them ham butties then they get a taste for meat and sometimes attack and eat people.
