He had never climbed a Munro before. When he reached the summit he seemed excited like a child and mesmerised by what he saw. This is the summit of Sgurr nan Ceathreamhnan, a mountain regarded as the fourth most difficult Scottish Munro to climb given its remote position and altitude.

We were walking on the path along Loch Affric looking for a place to camp. However the path is separated from the shore by dense vegetation and woodland.

On this occasion, moonlight reflected off the snow covered mountains that lined the valley and illuminated our way.
