Before the ascent. Everyone looks far too happy except Tony. He knows where they're going! |

This is not the summit. (That was never out of the cloud) |
|

|
|
This is at the summit ..... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.... where we had a spectacular view!!! (Visibility about 50 metres) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Its a long way down ... and up!! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Can we see England from here? |
|
|
|
|
|

|
Jim and Steve wait for Dave to take yet another photo!! |
|
|
|
|
|

|
That would be the summit - if we could see it! |
|

A pause to admire the view on the way down. Meanwhile Dave adjusts his trousers for his next photo!! |

Back at base camp (OK car park). The summit is still in cloud - just. |
