03.05.2014 - Carn Mor Dearg Arete

Today I was out working for Adventure Nevis guiding Vicky on the Carn Mor Dearg Arete on to Ben Nevis.  The weather today was absolutely brilliant which made for some stunning views over the Mamores and of the North face of Ben Nevis.  We started from the North Face Car Park near Torlundy and made our way up the forestry path before veering off the Alt 'a Mhuilinn path towards Carn Dearg Meadhonach and then on to Carn Mor Dearg its self.  From there we tackled the Carn Mor Dearg Arete, an excellent grade 1 scramble which leads to the eastern side of Ben Nevis and ultimately on to the summit, which today was very busy!  well done to Vicky and thanks for a great day!
