A friend and I arrived at the top, pretty shattered, coming from the North side, and stopped by the concrete shack thing. We must have been there more than 5 minutes when a German lady appeared from behind the shack smoking a cigarette. She asked which direction was Fort Augustus and left. It was hilarious and totally bonkers.
Edit. Top of the corrieyairack pass that is.
Bit grim as I’d bonked and it was raining and blowing a gale. But it’s beautiful up there and amazingly isolated for a Londoner. Shame they defiled it with those electricity pylons though...
I saw stage running across the road at one point. Stunning.
The surface varied from smooth gravel to quite gnarly rocks. 40mm plus is a good idea.
