Today there was a chill in the air as the wind swung to the east and
brisk blustery showers rolled in from the sea. I was working today on
Goatfell and North Goatfell, with a lovely high traverse of Stacach
Ridge, the rocky curtain that hangs between the two peaks. Its a great
scramble, due to the damp weather, we avoided the trickiest sections with
a wander along a traverse path that cuts under the buttresses on the
east side. Finally we topped out on Goatfell to fantastic panoramic
views.
