Strava Ben Nevis 👣
Completed with Jess, Joe, Lauren, Orlaith
Notes Climbed of Jess's birthday (at her request!). Had reasonable weather the whole way but the top was cold / snowy and couldn't get a view. Enjoyed the walk except for the zig-zag portion about 2/3 of the way up (needed a brownie to get past it).
