August 15, 2023,🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Schottland: Wanderung auf den Beinn Liath Mhòr - ein Munro 🌄

If the weather is optimal, we move out of the comfort zone and onto a Munro.
I had to learn: "A Scottish mountain is classified as Munro if it is higher than 3000 ft (914.4 m) and its summit has a (not exactly defined) "certain independence".
Great tour - the alpine sections have reached my limit.
