This was my second time up Goatfell, the last time being 30 years ago. This time I took the route up form Brodick via Glen Rosa to The Saddle and then onto the ridge up to North Goatfell (818m) and then to the summit of Goatfell (874m) itself.
It started off as a great day but as I reached The Saddle the weather turned, and it turned nasty very quickly. Within a minute or two of taking the photos on The Saddle the rain started to come down hard and the visibility went down to about 10m. Not good to say the least especially when I was on my own.
