Grey - A'Chir in Arran

Another exciting and challenging ridge to scramble is A'Chir in the Isle of Arran - west coast of Scotland. Arran is said to be "Scotland in miniature". But I was unlucky here. A dodgie jump at a place called "Le Mauvais Pas" (I wonder why is called like this...) put a stop to my walk at 6pm. I broke my ankle in two places and I had to be rescued from the mountain by some handsome guys, and lifted by helicopter. Six weeks on a cast and two operations did not stop my desire of going back and doing it again. Plus: God bless the UK National Health Service!

Querias era andar ao colo dos handsome guys e dar uma voltinha de helicóptero, confessa. :)
