Temperature Inversion over the Lairig Ghru
from Ben MacDui
© Gavin Shaw 2009
12:38 on Saturday 12th December 2009. Fortunately the cloud top, which
tracked my progress up Sron Riach stopped at that level, so on arrival
on Ben MacDui there was a splendid view. This stitched image was taken
about 200m west of the summit cairn, where the view into the Lairig
Ghru would normally open up. The visibility to the west and north was
superb. Ben Nevis (just right of Angel's Peak) was easily visible and
on close inspection even Ben Hope 159km away to the north north-west
was obvious. A
detailed, labelled view from the summit cairn can be
found here.
