Ben More to Ben Hope

Um, I think you mean double figures. When I first saw the schedule I thought the Knoydart day looked one of the toughest of all - a really great achievement to complete it. Regarding what he's doing when its over, he hasn't got many days rest before the LAMM!

may be but how fit will he be...

[RobW]

Not just the classic Knoydart big day itself, but also the preceding day's logistics to get out to Barrisdale involving a "midnight walk". Superb! 183 down, plus presumably the expected 12 yesterday, a cycle ride today then the Cuillin ...

Wish I was going up weather forecast looks great.

We are, and it isn't - the met office say severe gales with snow on the summits!
I'm pinning my hope on the fact that they're usually wrong...

[RobW]

Latest (from Stephen W this a.m.) is that Spyke finished 1130 last night, is probably doing Sgine, Saddle and Sgriol today, cycling to Skye tomorrow. Some discussions around whether to do Blaven tomorrow.

[RobW]

So he did indeed do Blaven Saturday, hopefully he did the Cuillin Main Ridge Sunday?... http://chris-upson.com/Munros/MunroSchedule23May10.pdf Anyone know how the weather was up there?

[Moorlander]

I received a message off Spyke Sunday night to say that he was safely off the Cuillin ridge and bagged all the Munro's. No mention of the weather. He's on his way to an early completion now.

[RobW]

Fantastic. I hope to catch up with him Weds pm/evening in passing.

Fantastic. I hope to catch up with him Weds pm/evening in passing.

Give Spyke my regards and ask him how he did Blaven and if he used my gully descent. I don't think I will ever get up there to meet him, a bit busy at work in the week and busy on the fells in the weekends.

I think he must have, Yiannis. Main Ridge writeup now blogged http://munros2010.blogspot.com/ Latest from Stephen Watts, Spyke was doing Cluanie horseshoe Mon pm, west to maybe A'Ghlas Bheinn or Dheiragain today then thru to Affric tomorrow; I'll hopefully catch them there - or on Toll Creagach or Carn Eige, if my feet / legs are working again ...

Spoke to Spkye the other day after he came off the Skye Ridge. He sounded a little worse for wear (but who wouldn't be). He was planning to head to Cluanie on the bike, then around the horseshoe, yesterday, before taking on the N.Shiel ridge today along with Ben Attow and A'Ghlas Beinn, before stopping at Altbeithe tonight. After that the N.Affric ridge, then the Monar peaks.

PS Yiannis - he did descend W off Blaven
