Ascent of Ben Nevis in 1971-08| Date: | August, 1971 | | Ascent Type: | Successful Summit Attained | | Peak: | Ben Nevis | | Location: | UK-Scotland | | Elevation: | 1343 m / 4409 ft |
Ascent Trip ReportA more substantial hike than you might expect. The trail head is near a youth hostel where I stayed the previous night. Dozens of people started up on a sunny morning, but the weather quickly turned cold, foggy, and drizzly, and everybody dropped out except me and two New Zealanders who made it to the top.
