Anyone fancy a stroll up Ben Nevis this Friday afternoon? ;-)

Dave



I'd be up for it, but then I'm mad :-)

In fact you're okay if you walk up from Glen Nevis until you get to where
it
opens out a few hundred feet below the summit, then it's dangerous. The
summit
itself is very dangerous in bad weather as you can walk over a snow
cornice and
fall 1000 feet to your death very easily.

I thought you'd be the first to volunteer! Apart from the ice and snow it
looks a tad windy as well.
