Today Paul, David and I went to the Buachaille. We started off by scrambling up D Gully Buttress and then crossed Curved Ridge to Rannoch Wall. We climbed Agags Groove in very hot weather. There were nose to tail queues in places on Curved Ridge below us, a pair ahead of us on Agags, a pair behind and another pair on January Jigsaw. As we climbed we saw a paraglider playing in the thermals around the mountain, swooping and turning close to us. Later, as we topped out onto Crowberry Ridge we then saw a hang glider playing the same game. We carried on up over Crowberry Tower and onto the summit making it back to the car just as the first spots of a rare rain shower landed!
