Mainly overcast, with the clouds above the high tops. Misty in the distance. Intermittent sunshine - most welcome given the surprisingly cold strong wind from the south west. A few minutes of drizzle. Terrain damp/wet - the grip was good apart from the wet rocks. Very few walkers about; 2 runners seen.
