08.10.2018: Old Man of Storr, Scotland


Today Casey, Ross, Carlee and I hiked the Old Man of Storr, which is part of the Trotternish ridge on the Isle of Skye. We got a bit of a break in the rain, so we headed out in hopes that it would stay that way. Unfortunately though, on the way down we got swamped in and absolutely drenched! But, that's Scottish weather I suppose!

This is us climbing at the base of Old Man of Storr, which should give you a decent idea of the scale of it! It was massive!

Breaking for a snack; gotta replenish those energy supplies... too bad Ross forgot his Snickers in the car













  
















This guy... He did the whole climb in bare feet, and when asked how he was doing, he said they're a little chilly, but it's nothing compared to winter in Germany. Probably will still not try it...
