with Alan Dawson, though much more slowly behind him as he forged ahead to do various surveys. First to the SE sub Sim, then up to the East top, former Munro summit, then to the two highest tops on the west ridge, NE and SW, only 80m apart and confirmed that the SW top with no marker at all is the highest point and the NE top in a 940m contour ring with a cairn up till this day, right next to the path isn't the summit but is about half metre lower. After going down to the col between it and An Caisteal we go to the other sub Sim SW top where I lie with my knees up, with phone in a side leg pocket with inefective velcro fastners for ten mins while Alan surveys much to my eventual consternation 90 mins on, as I find at the bottom at the track that my phone is missing. Certain that I know exactly where it is and resign myself to climbing again next day, referendum day.vegibagger17/09/2014
