Campsite and Beach, Coire Lagan and Glen Brittle Bay, from the summit of Sgurr Alasdair, Isle of Skye.

            Poem.

Rocky summit of the Isle of Skye.
Sgùrr Alasdair.
Threaded path-
our route taken
from Glen Brittle Camp Site.
Swam in the bay the day before the climb. 
Water warm-15° Celsius-Gulf Stream.
Trekked to the corrie loch of Coire Lagan at 570 metres.
Blue-sky day, balmy and warm.
After Lagan ascended 1,500 foot of scree, the “Great Stone Chute.”
One final Grade 2 clamber along an arête and on top of the world.
Seeing islands and mountains and bays and headlands
from 80-100 miles away.
Breath-taking, simply wonderful!
