From ski center, up and down. With Willy, Linda and Fiona. Excellent path most of the way. Hardly any wind despite forecast. Some cloud while crossing the boulder field near the summit, which intermittently cleared at the top to give us some views :) One potential sighting of the Old Grey Man ...PhoebeMoff21/07/2024
