From the Devils elbow we headed up Meall Odhar Tow to Meall Odhar. Snow the entire way, as we Summited Meall Odhar the snow became icy, so donned Crampons. As we summited Glas Maoll the weather closed in until very quickly it became a white out at around -17c. Headed as planned towards Creag Leacach, but turned back as weather became too poor. Returning via the same route, going was slow and was entirely navigated by bearings on the compass.
