That's exactly what I was needing to watch. My mate suggested doing the pink rib today on the ascent of Sgiath Chuil. Small world. Plan was to do this as an out and back for me to reach 85 but hoped for Meall Glas however on arrival at the 922m summit with an easterly and -9c blowing through and hee haw visability and my wee dog chittering it was enough. I'll go back for the second but only after a dry spell, those bogs were things out of a horror movie honestly it was brutal 😂.

I've walked over rocks plenty of times with them, and even along tarmac roads( yeah I was to lazy to take them off😂), they can take a pounding... used mine for 4years before getting out a file and sharpening them back up.. i use the Salewa ones, been using them for 5 years and still in great shape..don't by cheap your life can depend on them
