The forecast was for the least bad day in between two storm systems. In the event it was a real Goldilocks day: not too hot, not too cold, not too calm, not too windy, not too sunny, not too cloudy. A bit of mist covering the summits, but it cleared while we were there.
Meall na h-Aisre in the #Monadhliath from #GarvaBridge. There's a lot of water on the ground, it was very boggy until we'd gained some height.

This gives perhaps a better idea of a lot of the terrain. Lots of peat bogs and groughs. But great to see the spring alpine flowers in abundance. Creeping azalea and Cloudberry.

@AeonMach @jbenjamint I’d agree with you about not pinning our hopes on #hydrogen. But I used to live in the Gt Glen and saw the scale of environmental damage done by early pumped storage schemes - #LochNess/#LochMhor at #Foyers. But not only the early ones! The #GlenDoe scheme above #FtAugustus flooded a massive basin of #peatland supporting. good breeding populations of rare waders …dunlin, golden plover & greenshank… in the #Monadhliath
#pumpedStorage not the answer.
