r/Munros

Planning these for Sunday.

Assume there is still some snow above 1,000m or so. Has anyone been up in this area or Glenshiel in the last few days and have an idea of conditions?

Afternoon everyone, can anyone tell me the current conditions on Geal Charn and the surroundings? Mostly what the snow level is like. Thank you :)

I have a pair of Meindl Peru GTX hiking boots and am getting a bit confused about whether they would be suitable for flexible crampons or only micro spikes - would appreciate assistance! The Meindl website says they’re B on their scale, but also that they’re 3 season boots (so assuming not suitable for rigid crampons).

I hike a lot (mainly munros) but haven’t done much winter walking, and am keen to explore this. I’m not planning on proper ice climbing or anything, just would like not to have to pass on hill walks because there’s still snow on the hills, particularly as it’s May now and I’m still needing to check each time!

I’ve seen that mountain rescue do advise crampons over microspikes for winter hillwalking in Scotland and don’t want to go unprepared
