One special climbing trip - Part 3

Our sea stack day proved to be the start of some wet weather, so we tootled over to Reiff. But nae luck. We spent a day wandering like lost souls along the enticing cliffs at Reiff. Frustrated, we sat under an impressive roof and watched seals through the binoculars.



They say the best things come to those who wait, so wait we did. We were rewarded with a beautiful still evening and a dry day. We turned up at the Pinnacle Area to face the horror of Blackpool-style crowds! Hoards of climbers, crawling out from under rocks having spent the last 24 hours sheltering from the rain. Such was our determination to have the crag to ourselves, we hiked all the way round the bay to the Minch Wall.
