200 m of scrambling leads us to the summit of Ben Nevis at 1345 m - a rather gloomy place with a cairn and some ruins

For a short while the clouds clear slightly and we can see the ridge we just passed. Do you spot the lonely hiker?

We have now passed the ridge and take a short pause around noon at the cairn at 1150 m, before the final ascent.
