Climbing Ben Nevis - Scotland's Highest Point

Starting near Fort William in the Scottish Highlands I climb the Tourist Path to the top of Ben Nevis which, at 4,409ft, is the tallest mountain in both Scotland and the British Isles as a whole.
I have a extremely clear day for climbing and am able to point out geological and historical features while on my trip.

@MrCyclesafe Yeah, it annoyed me too. I considered going down for it as I often pack trash out, but it was too steep for me.

@MrCyclesafe - sometimes bits of kit (including bottles) become detached. It happens. Ben Nevis attracts its fair share of dick heads tho to be sure.

It's called needle ice when ground freezes and pushes up little bits of dirt.

@DStaniforth in lincolnshire or south humberside as it was called there is a village called horncastle,and between that place and grimsby is the lincolnshire wolds and the view is breathtaking and sometimes i wonder why people want to live like ants and sardinnes in cities.

@september7891 Hmm, Ben Nevis I'd say, but you've got to be pretty lucky to get it on a clear day!
