The pink glow of reflected sunlight bounces off the underside of heavy laden snow clouds bathing the roof of Torridon in the softest of light. I am rarely completely awe struck but having spent the night in a blizzard in a tent on the summit of Tom na Gruigach and then waking to the first fingers of dawn painting a transformed land, well awe struck is a very apt description. The mountain you are seeing so beautifully lit is Beinn Alligin and is probably part of one of the finest high altitude walks in the UK.
