RE: Serious Bagging: Magical day on Ben Nevis. 100 in the bag!
WooooooHoooooo. Congratulations on your 100th Munro. The one you wanted most, AND a day in the clear.
I had no idea that Ben Nevis had the mist that it does. The only other peak I know with those sorts of 'clarity' numbers is Denali in the US state of Alaska. I have a friend that worked on the Alaska Railroad for a few years in her youth, she'd make the round trip from Anchorage to Fairbanks twice a week and said she actually saw Denali 3 or 4 times per year...
Congratulations and well done on making your targeted goal.
Thanks @bigtom13! Glad you enjoyed my post. It was such a brilliant adventure.
Scotland is a pretty cloudy country most of the time - clear days are a bonus here. And a mountain as high as Ben Nevis gets even more of that cloud. The clouds just drift in from the Atlantic and cling to the highest summits.
