Brief note to inform folk that I completed my own version of Skye Cuillin Integrale on 30 May: Black Cuillin, Sgurr na Stri, Blaven, Clach Glas, Garbh-beinn and the Red Cuillin. 20 hours round trip from Sligachan. Solo and unsupported. Missed Belig, Sgurr nan Each (far top) and the two bumps before Gillean because I was concerned about lack of daylight (I only had a little torch...) and I fancied a pint. However I did manage a swim in Loch Coruisk, so maybe it should be the Cuillin biathlon?! Went anticlockwise in order to get the climbing out of the way early, but this makes for a few awkward decents and/or back-tracks. Fabulous day out. Tee shirt and shorts for the entire day. Recommended.
Not sure about protocol for identifying oneself, but I'm an old git with a beard, who for his sins is membership secretary for Dark Peak. Also apologies if I have got any of the gaelic spellings incorrect.
