Loop of peaks northeast of Mt Glasgow Scramble on 1-Sep-2026

This was one of those days when everything was perfect. A great group, wonderful summer weather with no smoke, gorgeous views, and an interesting long ridge hike/scramble that was new to three of us, including me. Walking the spur ridge to Garriochmill was like being on a sidewalk in the sky - very cool. Extra thanks to Sim and John for finding a decent route down off the ridge.
Participants: Sim, Alda, Susan, John, Ingrid (coordinator), Tina, Casey
