Walking the Sgùrr Alasdair route on Friday, August 5th, 2005, with my brother Peter was a classic Skye experience—demanding, dramatic, and unexpectedly rewarding. The day began under a blanket of mild, clouded weather: steady, still, and almost serene. We started from Glen Brittle, tracing the well-trodden path that leads gently uphill toward Coire Lagan, where the moody cloud lent the corrie a mystical feeling and kept the mountain’s summit shrouded.
