Opis:
I hoped the forecast may have changed for our mountain hiking but we couldn't get a signal at base camp to check, so off we set. The bad weather gnarl got to us and we took the decision to turn back before the terrain got any more serious. Hope it hasn't put him off hiking for good !! A pretty damp day on The Isle of Skye hill walking. Always better to turn back when your gut tell you it ain't right to proceed!
