Mt Arethusa Scramble on 16-Sep-2024

Sometimes, as a trip coordinator, you might start to question yourself (why you do it or how well you do it) but then you have a day like this when everything aligns, and all your doubts fade away!

Despite it being a last minute post, I was joined by a confident, but relaxed and cohesive group of scramblers, and despite our varying natural paces we all stayed together as a team.

The weather was absolutely perfect, and we enjoyed a long lunch on the summit, and a break to enjoy the warm sunshine in the cirque before meandering back to the cars.

With Bill and Simon contributing, it was hard to narrow down so many wonderful photos, but I did my best.

Thanks to Bill,Jack,Simon,Marianne,Maryse and Stephanie for making this day the highlight of my 2024 trips!
