Hill: Ben Wyvis
Date: 4th July 2009
Company: Myself and Steve
Dog Friendly: Yes

I met up today with an old friend with whom I used to do a lot of hillwalking in the 90s. We decided not to head too far West this morning, as the weather forecast was better in the East. We opted for Ben Wyvis. I have only climbed Ben Wyvis once previously and my log reminded me that it was in 3 hours of rain and 2 hours of snow, with no views. Ben Wyvis was therefore a good choice. Not going to say much more about the walk as there have been numerous previous reports for Ben Wyvis. We parked at, and set off from, Garbat. Will say I had a fantastic day and the craik was superb.
