Friday Vid: One-day Winter Cuillin Traverse

© Ian Stewart

Here's a spectacular short film of a winter Cuillin Traverse done this Wednesday, sent to us by Ian Stewart of Stewart Mountain Skills.

Ian and companions Nathan White and Tom Weston knocked off the lot between Sgurr nan Gillean and Gars-bheinn in a very respectable 12 hours 20 minutes. Maybe all that scary looking soloing helped them keep the pace up...? I think I need some new pants too, Tom.

In 'a very respectable 12 hours 20 minutes' … 'respectable'! - I think it's sensational. These guys are seriously good. Great, great movie too.

I struggle to comprehend doing the ridge in winter that quickly, a sensational achievement! With bivi kit it took us 24hrs of movement! http://www.masterplan-mountaineering.co.uk/2013/04/winter-traverse-cuillin-ridge/

Great effort. Two weeks earlier it took us 10 hours to wade from the Slig over the traverse of Gilean and back to the Slig in deep soft snow. I am horribly jealous.
