Pathetic whimpering end to my long-distance backpacking aspirations. Left Chris at the top of the bealach and headed back to the bothy with my tail between my legs. I vowed never to put myself (or Chris) through this process again - no more multi-day backpacking trips will be planned or attemped by me!
